Primary key disk pages not reclaimed when using SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_COMPRESS_TABLE with just the purge_rows option

When I continuously insert data, delete the inserted data then compress with purge_rows option in a loop, space is not reclaimed from the primary key file. The inserts are committed every 10000 rows, deletes committed every 50000 rows. All the rows that were inserted are deleted. The primary key values continually increase (across the inserts) . All the activities occur on a single thread. Included below is the space table output after each iteration in the loop:

As can be seen below and in the screenshot attached, the NumAllocatedpages for SQL111029001155930 is continuously increasing. This increase does not happen if the primary key values are reset after each iteration (ie, primary key values for new inserts are in the same range as deleted rows).
