RE: V5R1 slow?

[Adam_Driver@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Jim,

There are some hardware performance issues with V5R1. Check out
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/support/planning/v5r1hardware.html

Also, the memo to users for V5R1 has instructions on running
STROBJCVN OBJ(*ALL) LIB(*ALLUSR) OBJTYPE(*FILE) to avoid performance
problems (I believe this has also been mentioned in other mails).

Good Luck !

I'm still digging through the archives.  As you might imagine there are
lots
of hits on V5R1 and performance.

We upgraded our 12-way 740 dinosaur to V5R1 this past weekend.  We're
dealing with real and perceived slowness issues, particularly in batch.
Our
applications are largely traditional RPG -- there's not a lot of SQL.  The
only wild guesses I have are:

* Are our old SPD disk controllers ill-suited to V5R1?
* Is the auto performance adjuster making some really bad decisions?

Were there any other "head's up" issues with V5R1 that I can't remember
reading?  Help would be greatly appreciated.  Much thanks...
