CPU busy is probably not your problem. The percent LAN connection busy is most likely the cause of varying speeds. We have a machine that is rarely over 25% busy and depending on a number of factors the transmission rates can vary by 4 or 5 times. This is especially true if the transfer is outside of your local LAN. I have seen it with transmissions of dumps to IBM.

We use WLM SC for both batch and ftp, the latter has higher importance (3) compared to batch.So far I haven't run any trace. > Check your transfer rates shown in EZA1617I messages. Are they varying >wildly, even within a batch job? this is what my co-workers tell me, that the performance of the file transfer varies wildy.. They assumethis depends on how much the LPAR is busy, in terms of CPU.
