Hi John, I believe this to be pretty normal in a mid-range to large-sized environment.
This dataset contains the standard ASCII-to-EBCDIC translation table that is used by most TCP/IP applications which require codepage translation services. The exception is Telnet, which (usually) uses a different dataset. In many shops, this dataset is most often accessed by FTP and, to a lesser degree, by lpr/lpd. If it's "allocations" rather than "accesses" that concern you, they can be reduced somewhat by including DD statements in the JCL for these daemons/clients (and the RESOLVER, I believe). You can read more in the IP Configuration Guide (especially Appendix A).
