storage reduction after IPL?

List,

For the first time in months, I IPL'ed our v5r3 system over the weekend 
since I had to apply one PTF and an optional product. After the IPL I was 
surprised to see that system's disk usage dropped from about 59% to 50%. 
This raises some questions for me concerning the frequency of IPL. I would 
appreciate your comments. TIA

1) Is there some type of cleanup of work areas, output queues, etc. that can 
only take place during an IPL?

2) How often do you IPL your systems and why?
