Amir,

I see from your list applications command that there are multiple agents
servicing your WebSphere pooled connections, which suggests to me that
INTRA_PARALLEL is probably turned ON.  Generally, in a transactional
environment such as WebSphere, Siebel, Peoplesoft, Baan, Net.Data, and
others, INTRA_PARALLEL should be OFF.  Having INTRA_PARALLEL ON encumbers to
much overhead of setting up subagents and coordinating result sets, when
typical SQL returns short, sweet, simple, and small results.  If your
sense/perception/measurement is that OLTP performance is better with
INTRA_PARALLEL ON, then you likely have SQL that is performing scans, table
or index leaf pages.  INTRA_PARALLEL ON, in this case, is only a band-aid
fix with high CPU costs, and the application will likely have trouble
scaling to its maximum potential on the hardware.  I suggest you turn
INTRA_PARALLEL OFF, which will also free up a shared memory segment, which
means you could possibly make bufferpools larger.  Once INTRA_PARALLEL is
OFF, use the SQL Event instrumentation or DGI's SQL-GUY(TM) tool to rapidly
detect any SQL having excessively high CPU costs (high CPU burn rate is just
about the only way to detect index leaf page scans).

Best regards,
Scott

Subject: DB2EUG: DB2 Connections under Websphere
