Which ESAMON report provides the snapshot you provided (below)?

Apologies, I tried to avoid posting commercials ;-)

ESAUSPG shows the resident pages breakdown, including the amount paged
out to DASD. It also shows you the paging rates. For the full picture
you would also want to see ESAVDSK to see what part of the Linux swap
disk is resident, in expanded, or on DASD.

But that information is not really enough to see which user takes
advantage of expanded storage, and whether you have enough of it. The
main purpose of expanded storage for paging in the average system is
to help CP make the right choice in selecting pages to page to DASD.
If you don't have enough expanded storage for your workload, CP brings
the wrong pages out to DASD and performance suffers for all. We'd need
to look at other numbers to determine whether that is happening.
