Optimize Command not performing the bin packing

I have a daily OPTIMIZE job running, however, the number of files in the storage is not going down. Looks like the optimize is not helping to reduce the files.

The files are not physically removed from the Storage by the optimize command. A VACUUM command has to be executed to achieve the same
