Actually I feel your IRLM should run in SYSSTC.  Every request is going
to go through that.  You don't want to take a chance on it waiting for
some TSO user for CPU.

That's not entirely accurate.
With the WLM, you have little (or no) control over priorities.

The WLM can/does figure out who/what is using what as a 'server', and
creates pseudo-service classes under the covers to managed an
IRLM/DB2/CICS combo (for example).

So, you can bundle DB2 and the IRLM into the same service class. Of
course, it's a NIT since I usully put all three into SYSSTC.

Also, picking on the IRLM example: most of its work is done under cross
memory services, so it's dispatched at the priority (determined by the
WLM) of the requesting address space.
This can be shown by looking at the CPU time for an IRLM.
The last time I looked, TCB was always "0", and all the time was under
SRB.
