Fwiw, check out

good number of solutions that support and exploit the zIIP.

Subject: Re: zIIP eligible products?

John,
 You are essentially correct. The original use for zIIP was for
Distributed access to the mainframe (hence the enclaves) however more
work is moving to exploit the zIIPs like encryption products (e.g.
CA-Brightstore Tape Encryption), sort products, and DB2 utilities. You'd
have to look at your products and talk to the vendors.

If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.
