ios9 optimize storage of iphone does not?

I have an iPhone 4S with 16 GB of memory running with iOS 9.1... I have run out of memory and decided to use the option 'optimize iPhone storage '. I currently have about 4 GB of photos on this phone. I am using iCloud photo library and have confirmed that the photos were indeed uploaded to iCloud. Even though I have "IPhone storage to optimize" checked, my pictures are always 4GB expands on my iPhone. I don't optimization works. Any ideas?

Thank you, Mike C

I don't think Apple has released the details in-depth the feature, but what I've seen so far indicates that the photos will remain on your phone to their size, until space is needed for something else. It occurs immediately after the activation of the iPhone Optimize storage option.
