Funny that you say this, I noticed a similar situation (we don't back up
Saturday night or Sunday night, but we do IPL ). I was talking to Larry
about this last year and he indicated that he had asked IBM about it. The
response was that "the first backup after an IPL will always take longer."
Don't know if that answers your question, but worth a shot.

"It is interesting that for years we have had an issue where a backup on
Monday night will take longer than a backup on Tuesday-Sunday nights. Tried
lots of things to try and find out why but never did solve it. It's about
20-30 minutes longer for us and does not impact operations so we just went
on to other more pressing issues."
