Yes, it is possible that you will notice SMF 101 data volume / content 
changes, if you implement the new DB2 V8 option ACCUMACC.  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.
