CICS/TS now has the ability to use multiple TCBs - a QR TCB for normal stuff, SSL TCB's , and Thread-safe program TCBs (L8 TCB) So CICS can use multiple CP's..

This means that, even if you had work that a 2 x 50 MIPS could handle according to raw MIPS, if you had a CICS region which required 75 MIPS to deliver acceptable response times, you were hosed on such a system, whereas a 100MIPS uni would work just fine. Indeed, we may be approaching such a limitation here. OTOH, DB2 (for one) can sometimes see better performance on a multi-processor machine than on a uni-processor due to the potential for parallelism. In other words, it depends.
