I don't think so, there are 2 exposures per pagedataset, not per paging type. So if PLPA pages must come from the Common pgds, they will use the 2 Common pgds exposures and must compete with the normal Common pageins from the Common pgds. > At the same time the PLPA dataset will be relatively inactive.

However, since most installations do (should) not have (any) PLPA paging, the benefit might be small and possibly not worth while.
