Just ran across this that enables Natural to utilize the zIIP processor.

Wondering if anyone is using it or has more details they can share.
Is this IBM-approved, or another Neon zPrime?
A quick read of the brochure makes it clear this is IBM-approved zIIP
exploitation and not another zPrime "hack":
<Brochure>
HOW IT WORKS
zIIP Enabler for Natural moves eligible batch
workload from the GPP by switching to
Service Request Block (SRB) execution mode
whenever possible. By keeping the overhead
involved with switching to a minimum while
maximizing the execution time on the zIIP
processor, reductions in GPP CPU of up to 95
percent can be achieved
