Sorry to confuse you.  I'm running under VM, of course.  As far as the size
of the machine, why is that relevant?  I have an MP3000 H70, which is still
small until you compare to Intel or Mac.  Then its big at about 115 MIPS.
Unless someone gives me a bigger system, that's what I got.  I'm trying to
optimize the system, running S/390, and Z/OS, as stated.  JIT is on,
with -Xmx512m -Xms256m passed to the JIT -enabled VM.

Now, any ideas or are we just looking for fuzzy little nits;-)?

Steve: I am confused. The only way you could run Linux under z/OS is
using the 3rd party ISX product. If so, talk to that vendor about
performance. As supported by IBM, Linux only runs directly in an LPAR
or as a guest of z/VM. I suspect you are running Linux for S/390
(note, not OS/390) in an LPAR alongside z/OS (or OS/390) in a separate
partition. All that being said, the MP3000 is a pretty small system
(especially if it is an H30) to run a large Java workload on. Do you
have the JIT turned on?
