Rob, it is certainly possible that they may have to end up adding more page
packs, but the STORBUFF setting has been effectively "hiding" that issue,
if indeed it is an issue. I've seen a couple of systems where they were
having this problem and had assumed that they had a paging problem.
Naturally, they added some page packs and, just as naturally, it did no
good. Once they fixed STORBUFF they already had plenty of page packs to
last quite a while.
(Yes, I know... if they had a decent measurement system they would not have
made such a poor assumption....... )

There were some other VM problems that occurred about the same time but I
don't know if they were related to these changes.

Now just hope "them" have also added the required number of page packs
to handle the memory over-commit that was suggested. Otherwise the
system will eventually become very non-responsive.
