IBM did not add a "number of times package allocated" count (IFCID 0239) until DB2 v9, necessary with ACCUMACC and thread-reuse, in order to more accurately derive average statistics. Aside from DB2 V8, thread reuse can also contribute to SMF 101 data volume reduction, and presents some challenges with accurately counting thread- executions (field QWACPCNT) and packages-allocated (?) with a given SMF 101 record.
