Apollo disk space erosion

The disk on my DN3000 (SR9.2.3, IX9.2.3, TCP2.1) has been gradually
filling up (down to ~2 Mbytes free as reported by LVOLFS), as well as
seeming to have a slower response time.  After being "up" for several
weeks, I had to reboot the node for an unrelated reason, and noticed
that I had recovered 10 Mbytes on the disk!  Machine seems faster,
too.

As a check, we did a /SYSTEST/LST on a node that had been up for about
45 days, rebooted, and "found" another 5.5 MBytes.  But a subsequent
LST could account for only a few tens of Kbytes in the user-visible
file system.  Where does all this disk space disappear to?  How can I
get it back without rebooting?
