In the event, when Keka is compressing pvm file (Parallels Desktop virtual machine ~20G size) and there is not enough free space on macOS Mojave encrypted apfs volume, but more than enough purgeable space - purgeable space won't be freed-up automatically and Keka will fail with fatal error 2 (no free space available).

This will not happen, when compressing non-pvm files. I have tried this with centos-everything.iso, which is over 10G. Keka compressed it successfully and macOS freed up purgeable space automatically.

Not sure whose fault it is:

Parallel's, for creating pvm in some erroneous form of collection of folders and files, which leads to Keka not being able to compress it correctly.

Keka's, for not being able send correct command to macOS to free up purgeable space, when compressing large amount of files.

macOS's, for not being able to timely understand that purgeable space need to be cleaned up.
