Just a thought, but anyone processing internally compressed CICS or DB2 data on a non-z/OS platform (Windows/Unix) might see substantial CPU usage from RLE decompression.

If the compression is lightweight, decompression should be too. I can't speak for any other product, but I did an experiment with the EasySMF Java API.

Running a CICS report on my laptop I got:

Processing CICS compressed data: 1.2 GB/s (size after decompression)

Processing uncompressed data: 800 MB/s

So processing the compressed data was actually about 50% faster.
