>Does anyone have a good idea of what to measure before and after we flip the switch on HiperDispatch to be able to prove whether or not it helped at all?
The simplest metric is IOS/Busy, before and after. This, of course, assumes that the workload mix is relatively constant, before and after. I've used the above metric, to evaluate processor changes, since Joe Major introduced me to it in my first capacity planning course in early 1982. - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
