Simon, the following site:
http://publib-b.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/searchsite.cgi?query=performance

Gives you the Redbooks published on various performance issues of DB2 and others.
N0. 19
DB2 UDB V7.1 Performance Tuning Guide

will give you very good tuning tips.

You will need to tune the intra-parallel, max_query_degree parms at the dbm level as 
well as the default_degree parm at the db cfg
level.

With !GB of memory available, you should obviousle address the size of your buffer 
pool(s) first.
I'd recommend as a start point to run the Performance Smart Guide from the Control 
Center. Don't run the output but save it to
script, print it and review so you can change what fits your environment.

HTH,  Pirre.
