Subject: Performance issues moving from AS400 model 53S V3R7 to S30 V4R2 
Hello all:

Has anyone made this upgrade in the last year?  We did, and we can hardly see an
improvement at all.  We were running V3R7 on a 53S and upgraded to V4R2 on an
S30, adding 40 more gigs of disk and twice the ram as before.  We were told the
new processor was to be about 240 times faster, but it hardly seems 10 times
faster and indeed, some processes run slower than before.  We have had IBM in
for the last two weeks running tests and analyzing the results and they say
nothing appears to be wrong.  I just thought there might be someone else out
there who made a comparable upgrade and might be able to tell me how much of a
performance increase they saw.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve Roach
