Jim,

There are 135 drives allocated to this partition.  The jobs experiencing 
poor performance are native.  Here is a screen shot of WRKSYSSTS:

This was for an 8 minute interval.  Pool 3 is a private pool for QBatch 
where the jobs with poor performance run.

I am currently running a TRCASPBAL that will end at 5:00 PM.  I plan on 
doing a ASP balance *USAGE over night tonight.  Unfortunately I won't be 
going to COMMON this time.  Thanks for your help.

Mark:

Several items need to be known first.  How many of the 100 arms are
allocated to the specific partition?  How about processor/memory?  You 
said
faulting was not problem, but over what period of time (use about 8 - 10
minute observations without any F5 or F10 activity in the WRKSYSSTS
command)   SQL access or native?
