I  believe TADz might not be an option for many shops due to pricing vs gains 
since it's hard to measure the gains. This exit could prove pretty useful when 
TADz is not available. Having a documented programming interface for this is 
just golden.

Thanks IBM :)

I guess I missed the first post.  It interests me, maybe because at one
time (when I had not much to do) I wrote some SVC hooks that did similar
monitoring, and crazy enough, my code actually made it to production
where it was of some use over time.  I think this was late-1990's, maybe
before TADz became popular.

I haven't seen this new method yet, but I like it.  Now, what do you do
with all the data?  From your note it sounds like IBM is only providing
an exit, and a user program needs to do the recording and reporting.
That part in my old code was probably more difficult than the hooks
themselves.
