I've been out for a week, and I haven't seen this possibility posted in 
response to your problem, so I'm going to post it.  Feel free to 
cross-post to MVS-OE if you think it's necessary.

Check with the vendor to see what kind of I/O the application does. We 
once had an engineering software vendor come in here with a "wonderful" 
application that the users really wanted badly. They had seen it run on a 
PC or Unix box, I forget which. On MVS/ESA (at that time) it ran like a 
dead dog. 

The problem? They were doing I/O a byte at a time. On Unix/Windows 
filesystems that didn't matter a lot (I am not a filesystem guru, so I'll 
not try to explain why), but when they got to MVS, of course, it died 
because they were writing one-byte blocks to CKD disk.   I realize that 
HFS will change this  but there's still got to be a lot of of overhead if 
you're doing byte-level work on your files.

Re: Java/LE Tuning Advice sought






Possible progress:  In my open "TechQA" question with IBM on this topic
I got a "new" option to specify in the Java options, and I am now
recording verbosegc output in readable form.

The option is

                 -Xverbosegclog:filename 

where filename is a file name of one's own choosing.

Maybe this is the "something" that another poster couldn't remember
having to do?
