Dave, thanks for the response. Here's answers to your questions: > >When you say "starting to run a really long time," does that mean suddenly or progressively over time? > Suddenly. These are weekly jobs and last month the elapsed time really jumped. The only difference according to the application folks, is just more data, approximately 10% added. The main database is not huge (4500 trks).
>Are you running FOCUS interactively (TSO) or from a remote client? Does your job contain the FOCUS code, or does it call an RPC? > Not sure what you mean. It's just a batch job, EXEC PGM=FOCUS, the SYSIN DD contains: EX <focuspgm> FIN >Are you using the FOCUS SVC, or the IBI subsystem? > Subsystem >Have you upgraded FOCUS recently or installed a new release in parallel? > No >Is your data in a FOCUS database, or are you using an adapter to another data source? > Focus Database >What sort of performance measurements do you have to compare with and without FOCSU? > Elapsed wall clock time. >Regards, >Dave Barry Thanks for any ideas you might have!
