Brian, Have a looks at IBM's mips charts for z/9 bc (that's where I looked). you can see a lose of 2.5% per CP.

You probably have some other problem that you see manifesting itself as a big loss of capacity. The actual loss should be quite low on a z/series box, (in the area of 1% to 2% depending on a number of factors). If you are indeed getting those results then something is terribly wrong. I think you might have some problems that need to be looked at. If you are really loosing 30% of your CPU's, then some big corrective action is warranted. If you contact me offline I can help you find out what the problem is at your site.
