This is not helpful when facing the "some of these systems are 30 or
40 years old" and IBM = "lots and lots and LOTS of money" mentality. As

IBM rarely publishes System z prices. You really need to contact
your IBM System z rep or System z BP to get a number. The price

Hi,
you should see a large benefit in page table memory consumption with
