Back to some of Ray Wicks old SHARE papers. The Big Pitcher come to mind.  
Today's tuning is an amalgam of hardware, software, architecture and  
prestidigitation. Craig Mullins has new v6 of DB2 Guide
thru v9 and v10. http://www.craigsmullins.com/cm-book.htm 
 
He references some available tools and has several tuning tips and  
observations. For us the old Platinum tools(now CA) were life savers for DB/2  
and 
SQL bottle necks.
 
Updated Redbooks to include new SSD devices give impressive gains in thru  
put for most work loads.
 
The dreamer's dream is a self tuning system. Some sites do it by  fiddling 
with WLM by shift or load or letting CoD fire up another processor  still a 
good bit of manual observation and configuration.

It's my  opinion it's a good tool for cpu bound application, a bit less  for
discovering elapsed time issues.

Finally, I use a set of tools  to do the job, SMF, monitors, APA  etc.
