I haven't used the Application Performance Analysis tool.   As to HIS, I 
wouldn't
consider it hard to set up.  Maybe someone else might find it a little harder.
The shop I'm at only used to run it per IBM request (prior to or after CPU
upgrades for example or some performance issue), but we run it all the
time now including sandbox LPARs. 

The steps to configure / run HIS are covered in the MVS System Commands
Manual (of all places).  But I guess since System REXX is covered in the 
Authorized
Assembler Services Guide, this isn't a shock.  :-)
