I have two questions.

1. What do the above figures mean?

real  = elapsed (wall) time
user = userspace (application) time
sys   = system (kernel) time

There is obviously quite a lot of suspend time when running the test on our z/OS system. Otherwise the times are comparable.

2. What happens on z/OS when you put a heavy load on 320 channels all at once?


I don't know we've only got 14 channels on the z114 at the lab :^) The Linux server is a VM running under HyperV, which I must say is very impressive tech. I've never been much of a fan of Microsoft but the fail over and live migration capabilities are excellent. Those x86 blades absolutely thrash our zIIP for running
Java workloads.
