You probably don't want to hear this, but your Linux and z/VM performance monitors should be able tell you where the problem is (or isn't). If it's a configuration issue, adding resources is unlikely to help. If you don't have performance monitoring tools, life is going to be very difficult since using VM and Linux commands to figure out what is going on is a daunting task. Much of the good information VM has about user and system performance is not available via command, but is in the data stream fed to a performance monitor.
