Re: Java (was: DFSORT - SMF Records - GMT To EST)

I doubt that there is a significant difference in CPU resources between running the JVM in JZOS vs BPXBATC**. Perhaps the differences that you are seeing have to do with not measuring all of the address spaces? For JZOS, the JVM will be in the same address space as the JES2 initiator. For

"The IBM 5150 didn't officially launch in the UK until January 1983. One reason given for this was the company's lack of expertise in managing the complex dealer and distributor network in Europe which, unlike the far-more-homogenous US where IBM had its own retail network and the
