You have chosen a bad case for HOT. Since you are repeatedly updating
the same set of rows, the dead space created in the first step is the
blocks which are not touched in the subsequent updates. Is this a real
scenario or are you just testing ? If its just for testing, I would
suggest updating different sets of rows in each step and then check.
Thanks,
