Thanks. My z196 is rated at 40404 SU/SEC. My z114 is rated at 33333 SU/SEC. 
(Per https://www-01.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink/lib03060.nsf/pages/srmindex) 

Does that mean that the z196 is roughly 20% faster? That 1 CPU second on the 
z196 is roughly equivalent to 1.21 CPU seconds on the z114?

Am I doing that correctly?

Charles

I would convert CPU to service units, which can be compared between
different machines. Service units are cpu depended. You need to multiply
CPU by machine service unit factor. you can find this value in the
processor tables.
