This might be obvious, but if you can, you generally want to run APA on the slowest system you own, because modern machines are too bloody fast: it can have trouble identifying hotspots because it only goes to (I think) 100K samples per second, and that's not enough. At least, that's what ISTR from using it a few years ago-on then-current machines. Unless APA has increased that granularity, this problem can only have gotten worse.
I've heard of people considering a zPDT just so they could have a SLOWER system to test on-when was the last time you heard that? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
