HONE was online vm370 based system that grew into (the internal IBM)
world-wide sales & marketing support (with lots of HONE clones all over
the world) ... largely APL-based applications ... which is also largely
inteterpreted code. misc. past posts mentioning HONE

I had done the pre-cursor of vm DCSS ... basically a cms page-mapped
filesystem with lots of bells & whistles about how things were
page-mapped ... including all kinds of sharing. misc. past posts
mentioning paged-mapped filesystem
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/submain.html#mmap

this was heavily used by HONE ... starting for the APL interpreter ...
i.e. the executable code. However, additional enhancements were done so
that large portions of some APL workspaces (interpreted code) were also
made "shareable".

some old email relating to migrating the changes from cp67 to vm370
... and then doing my own internal product distribution to large number
of internal datacenters (including HONE).

later, a small subset of some of the features/functions (what is called
DCSS, as well as some number of cms applications reworked to execute in
read-only shared environment) were picked up and released to customers
as DCSS.
