RE: Websphere: a resource hog?

Joe,

Isn't it remarkable what you gain by adding a little RPG to your design
<smile>?

I noticed that I had forgotten to turn off the logging switch for my ILE
Application Server.  It was generating 6K of HTML plus 10K of IFS log.  By
the time I noticed, there was about 100 Meg of log.  After switching off the
log, the average client response time dropped to between .4 and .5 seconds.
Actually, many of the responses were in the .3 range.

I should admit, though.  My little CPU was running much of the time at
++++%.

Nathan.
