Thanks for yr inputs! We are looking at about 850-900 maximum concurrent users.

Are there any specific performance gains in 4 or 5.x (over 3.x)? Rather, what 
might I miss out on if i retained 3.x? [3.x is doing just fine today and we 
wouldn't want to disturb this unless there is a compelling reason vis-a-vis 
performance]

Alot will depend on the configuration of the as/400 and the code you are 
using. What is the number of estimated concurrent users?

You can google for most tidbits and information, if you have a specific 
question the archives of this list are a good resouce, also there are 
numerous books on the subject, (which there are several lists of them if you 
serach the archive). I would however offer one caveat settings, 
configurations and JVM/application optimizations are like finger prints, and 
so you can get ideas, but your going to have to see through trial and error 
what works for your specific application/hardware/software.
