I understand the words in your response but I still don't understand. How is it 
possible that it takes over 800 SUs to respond to and Infoprint daemon? What am 
I missing here?

The first two periods are ALWAYS used, but the duration limits how long the 
work stays there before it transitions into the next period.

So, if most of our work is in period 3, it's because it has exceeded the 800 
SU's that have been designated in the previous periods.

Question for any WLM/performance geniuses,

Our Inforprint processes suffer when the system gets slow and therefore print 
slows. The Infoprint manual suggests changing the WLM Service Class for these 
processes thusly:

* Service Class OMVSDMN - OMVS Print Daemons

  Base goal:                                                        
  CPU Critical = NO    I/O Priority Group = NORMAL                  
                                                                    
    #  Duration   Imp  Goal description                             
    -  ---------  -    ----------------------------------------     
    1  200        3    80% complete within 00:00:00.500             
    2  600        4    60% complete within 00:00:01.000             
    3                 5    Execution velocity of 40                     

It's that last period that has us confused. It appears that the first two 
periods are never attempted and everything falls into the third one (which is 
not what we want, we want the first one). Should the third one be more like the 
first two?
