One of our leading z/VM and Linux under z/VM performance experts, Barton Robinson, has
written a very nice performance overview and set of guidelines/best practices document for
getting the most "bank for the buck" when deploying Linux as a guest of z/VM. The article
can be found here:

I'd suggest saving a copy locally someplace, so it can bve referred to at a
later time.
