In our environment Shark 800 w/ficon it's 2 ms or less into the hundreds 
of mic's with cache hits in the 90 - 100% range. When we supported RVA 
T82, w/escon w/3390 emulation I seem to remember 4 - 7 ms with same cache 
hit ratio. I also found some old doc from out site that showed STK 8890 
with 48 mg cache with read hit ratios of 80 - 100% getting between 5 - 10 
ms. And if memory servers me, I'm still looking for the doc, on IBM 3390 
w/3990 w/o cache I would say anywhere from mid teens to high 20's ms. 
response time but of course results will vary with pathing, workloads and 
the like.

DASD Response Time






    I'm developing some code on a Flex-es machine and would like to try to 
see how the code will work in a real environment.  I don't know if it is 
Flex-es or Linux that is caching the I/O, but the response time the 
application sees is extremely good.  The Flex system has the ability to 
delay the I/O that it delivers to MVS.  I would like to set these delay 
values to something that more resembles actual I/O response times.  If 
someone can give me some values to plug in, I'd appreciate it.  3390's, 
with and without a caching controller.  I know the values vary with cached 
controllers and hit ratios. I'm interested in the response time RMF 
reports when the data is found in the cache.  Thanks.
