This version of lessfs contains an important bug fix. As of lessfs version 1.4.10 a bug causes lessfs not to reclaim space when used with the file_io backend.

Can space reclaim be turned on and off?
A control at either filesystem creation or at mount time would be a great help.
You can add START_RECLAIM to your configuration file. When you add START_RECLAIM=100 lessfs will not reclaim space until the disk is completely filled. By default it will start to reclaim at 1%.
I noticed that the manual does not yet describe this option, so I will update it with the next release.
