When those other Linux guests are not defined to use the IFL, they will continue to use the CPs. I don't think we've ever dedicated CPUs for performance measurements. The entire motivation for running Linux on z/VM is to share the resources, so to me measuring the use of dedicated resources is not interesting. The performance monitor can distinguish overhead and virtual machine usage. Rob
