My first reaction to this suggestion was "as if". Then I remembered from long ago an actual IBM recommendation that TSO 'performance expectation' be kept in check by deliberately setting response to some defined level like (say) three seconds. The idea was to keep response time steady whether the machine was lightly or heavily loaded. So users would not complain. I was infuriated by this recommendation and never dreamed of implementing it, but some shops may have. Still, I'm sticking with "as if".
I once (a very long time ago) worked at a shop that wanted to do that; in fact it was the IBM performance SE who originally suggested it.
