Interesting! I suspect since this is the same thing pcompact does (but here it's on a per container/ploop basis), it won't do anything different, but could be worth trying:

prl_disk_tool compact --hdd /vz/private/$CTID/root.hdd/

You might be able to feed it the specific snapshot paths (not certain). It does have a --force option you could try as well.

If these are online snapshots, I wonder if it's actually the system memory snapshot that's eating up a bunch of space (probably includes memory contents AND virtual/vswap). Granted that would be a significant amount of memory still. You could try the --skip-suspend option when creating the snapshot to find out.
