Loren, your statement that Velocity the only vendor of performance 
monitoring software is incorrect.  Both IBM and Velocity offer solutions.

But a VM performance monitor is not an "execution profiler".  To really 
know where a machine is spending its time, you have to look at an 
instruction trace.  Depending on the workload, you MAY be able to get some 
idea by sampling the PSW as Rob suggests.
