As any regular DB access sweep collects pages in groups. But no matter of it I'm absolutely not surprised with such ratio. When record on a data page is garbage collected a lot of other pages are touched - indices for example. And as long as we do not expect removed versions on a page to be in index order number of index pages modified (and therefore written) is equal to the number of removed versions with different index key values. I.e. ratio == 20 is quite possible.
