Ideally, I would like to create all future data spaces with a size of 2GB, 
rather than 2GB OR 2GB-4K (when the returned ORIGIN value is NZ).  I looked at 
assembler service reference manuals as far back as 1999, and they all state 
that a non-zero origin value (4K) is based on a processor dependency. I 
eventually found a vintage IBM-Amdahl presentation (1989) indicating the 
dependency is due to low-address protection being in effect when the PSF 
(Private-Space Facility) is not active. 

My question is... Is this still relevant 30 years later? Do any G10 or above 
customers run configurations where PSF is inactive? 

Thanks, 
Mike
