Hi Martin and Rob, First thx much for your input. Here are 3 links which relate the "issue" and common code for which we fall into a SIIS scenario: https://www.google.fr/#q=istream_flash_062606_v4 http://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/watsonwalker/ww/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/06173415/18017-The-Cheryl-and-Frank-zRoadshow.pdf http://conferences.gse.org.uk/attachments/presentations/ibHo4j_1446285934.pdf
Unfortunately I have more than 1000 pgms to review and handle on a short timeframe, so I will have no time to implement "Baseless processing". I do plan to SAK(Search And Kill) SIIS occurences for scenarios described in above links I will find and implement newer instructions as immediate ones to eliminate memory references and constants in storage as well. I will check cases where two instructions can be replaced by one only...to use CIJE in place of LTR/BZ combination as for example. Since we do talk of CPU cycles savings here I will check for AGI cases and their resolution and try to implement instruction grouping as much I can. From my humble point this is a real topic and all z13 sites having old productions Batch programs should perform some action. regards Philippe
