we must distinguish between JOBS running (103 right now) and PROGRAMS
active (9984 right now) [the latter not shown by any "standard" command, but
I have my own, of course].
As an example, the program QSYS/QCADRV2 is right now (on my
system) active (in activation groups) for 49 jobs (actually processes
to be more precise) namely: SCPF, QALERT, QIWVPPJT, ...,
QSERVER, QTVDEVICE, and so on.
Each of these active programs have their own "working storage" defined etc.
