It hasn't really been shown that changing your meal portion will actually change your symptoms of IBS, but from my own experience I feel that larger meals seem to exacerbate symptoms more than smaller meals. So many times I will recommend to patients to have smaller, more frequent meals, because I think that large meals are a stressor on the gut and seem to increase symptoms.
