In general, there will be very little CPU time recorded in the DB2 Address 
Spaces,
except for the DDR address space, because CPU time consumed in DB2 is recorded 
in 
the address space OF THE CALLER, i.e., the Batch Job or the CICS region that
called DB2, so the SMF 101 (DB2ACCT) data is the only safe source of who is
consuming DB2 CPU time.

There is a basic issue with DB2 statistics for CPU - they start with the first 
SQL statement.  Everything that happens before that is not recorded in the DB2 
cpu times.  This is WAD.  There used to be some presentations on what was 
included in DB2 cpu and why.  I haven't looked for them in a long time. Maybe 
someone on DB2 listserv has a better memory or keeps better notes.
