Hmmm. That's 10 weeks in a year.
I have experimented with this number---Note that it includes
professional development, e.g., journal reading, web browsing, meeting

the task at hand ---and I do not think 5% is enough.

Working too many hours will eventually lead to problems, but so will lack of

Hi,
In our environment, we have a mix of emulated 3390-9 and 3390-54. When we
have a need for small volumes (page, etc), we use 3390-9s and backfill them
with rarely referenced files - documentation, etc. I tend to keep the system
on 3390-9s (except SMPPTS!), as there was (once) a bit

If I remember correctly, there is also an issue of the number of paths
available; fewer, larger volumes = fewer paths = more I/O contention. (This
may be an old issue that is no longer relevant.)
