Are you saying the ziip might not be as fast as the regular processor on
the z10? I'm just asking because I don't know.

We installed a new z10-BC with a zIIP on Sunday (IBM 2098-Q05). It is 
working out well and my management is pleased. We normally run an MSU 
high 4HRA of 110 MSUs during a regular work day. Yesterday our high was 
only 86 MSUs. Of course this was due both to the zIIP and the 
improvement in the MSU/MIPS ratio over the z9-BC processor. The next few

days should be interesting as they are our high usage month end/quarter 
end processing. It'll be interesting to see how much of that gets moved 
to the zIIP.

I'm glad to hear that you're pleased. But remember the REAL bottom line:

is your business workload getting done in a timely fashion? THAT is the 
sort of thing that makes management really happy. :-)
