Max, I am going to use the IBM reason, "It depends...". WLM is relative to what your other goals are set to. It also depend on what importance you set the velocity go to. A high velocity with and importance of 1 will react a lot diffenently than a high velocity goal and an importance of 5.
In the situation you stated the goal was designed to never be met so for the most part will get the resources it needs. Is this a good thing? Again, it depends. IMHO a high velocity goal is not a good thing, but again it depends on your other goals.

PIs range from 1.4 to > 2 and it NEVER reaches 1 nor it's below 1. I read some pepres that a very high velocity goal (>80%) is not good if not useless and infact in my previous shop in some CICS we lowered our goals without any delay in response time. Is still bad to put velocity goals higher than 80% ? In IMHO it is.
