I'm analyzing a job using CA's MA-Tune (similar to Strobe). Question is if there is that could be optimized. Looking at the MA-Tune reports which are based on 100 samples per second for 1 minute, I see that the job is seen in IEAVEPS1 for some 20%. IEAVEPS1 is POST, IIRC.
I thought that POST would be a quick process and therefore I'm wondering it appears at the top of the list. I'd like to understand a bit better what I'm seeing and I'm *not* saying this is a problem. The program does a lot with DB2, and when a DB2 call is made, I'd expect the TCB to go into a WAIT until the SRB in DB2 completes and POSTs the TCB. Watching from 9000 ft, is this about right? Why do I not see any entry reporting the WAIT (IEAVEWT1 or similar)? Is this just bad luck with sampling? I would have thought that POSTing is quick, so I wonder why I often see a couple of IEAVEPS1 entries in a row? Of yourse 1/100s is a long time so other things may have happened inbetween, not being caught ba MA-Tune's sampling. I wonder, however, if and what could case this to take longer that what I would expect.
