Does it work like this?  If it is a simple batch program then memory allocation 
totals (including hiperspaces) can be controlled by IEFUSI.  I mean, if for 
some reason hyperspace usage becomes a problem on the system.

But what if that address space is dubbed as an OMVS address space? Do the 
BPXPRM memory options then impose the final limits? Like ASSIZEMAX/MAXASSIZE?

Another way of asking, if for some reason hyperspace usage became a problem and 
the problem program ran in a UNIX address space, would BPXPRM limits (or 
corresponding RACF OMVS segment) be a way to tune things?

Lindy

Subject: Re: z/OS and hiperspaces

In impacting the system, there is no difference in whatever storage a user 
consumes largely. It can/will result in heavy page-outs, which are not 
necessarily bad if the pages are old, and consequently heave page-ins which 
will impact your system performance.
Hiperspaces can be much larger than dataspaces, but you can have many of both.
The structure of hiper- and dataspaces are quite different and the techniques 
to use them are evenly different. The same is true for 64-bit storage.
