And what exactly happens?

If you mean bad things, au contraire. z/VM can sustain extremely high paging rates (thousands per second and more) and still deliver good performance to it's guests.

It is certainly not an environment that you want to tune to, but it's good to know that the operating system can handle it, if need be.

Oh, really?  Sure you can.  z/VM can handle it very nicely, thank you.

Sure, given enough aux storage.  We all know what happens when VM starts
paging.
