Another problem with Peter Farley's formulation of this issue is his
use of the phrase normally skilled professional application

As has been pointed out, there are many IBM tools such as zPCR that you can
download to help with this exercise. The tools require either a good estimate
or RMF data from the LPARs to give you an accurate

For my sins, I started work in an industrial research laboratory.
One time the laboratory was having some sort of open day[1] and one of my
colleagues had a printed card announcing the rate of migration of chlorine ions

Rob Scott has pointed you in the right direction.
Worth emphasizing is that CP-SU ratios are most useful for botionally
'scientific' , CP-intensive applications.
Many 'business' applications are I/O-bound, some of them--MFUs are the
classic example--to the extent that shrinking CP processing to

If you have access to the MXG software, search in SOURCLIB for this
