Thanks Terry, we have received similar answer from another forum:
"I would have thought for a heavily hit DB2 there will be a heavy load on the Catalog at startup and at peak load times, depending on how many table spaces and index yor database comprises. I think the default is still 3, so I would be surprised to find a big kicker like a DB2 catalog to be so low, maybe up around the 7 or 8 mark. The downside of having multiple strings is that you use more storage (big deal), so yes, increasing this should be worthwhile. But as always with an exercise like this, always monitor the before and after impact on a known or simulated workload." Also we have opened a PMR to ask IBM about it. When we obtain a response we post it here.
