Negative byte number in walk status

Something strange is shown in the walk status for our still running index. At the moment it says:
Pages recently walked
45534 pages (-1,080,735,389 bytes) so far.

Why is there a negative value? Could this be an overflow, or does this have something to do with the "40,706 pages scheduled to be refreshed" that I also do not understand, what this exactly means...

Yes, it's an overflow in the displayed value. It doesn't affect the walk and can be ignored.
