What you said is true but by starting with the data in the SMF you can then drill down. If a program is called via CALL or any of the other methods the CPU will be shown in the SMF for the program in the JCL pgm=.

---------------------------<snip>-----------------------------

Using SMF30 subtype 4

Calculate top 100 cpu consuming steps (Total of TCB/SRB) by program name (EXEC PGM=) over some period of time. Add any appropriate filters and retry. E.G. IEBGENER - IBM code, can't do much about it in the short run, so ignore.

Calculate for the top 100 CPU consumed/IO (excp count).
Rank the top 100 by CPU/IO.

Start at the top of the list and work down using STROBE, GTF, other to determine the cause.

Code/test/promote.
Repeat ad infinitum, until be benfits gained are exceeded by the effort required.

Hope this approach helps.

This sounds good until you dig a little deeper. There's no record in SMF of any subroutines, etc. that are invoked via LINK or LOAD/CALL/DELETE or ATTACH or XCTL.

This "little gap" can lead to a lot of missing formation. BTDTGTSS
