RE: V4R5 Performance Problem

I have been advised by private email from another E3 customer that IBM is
aware of an issue and that they are working on a PTF.  I am not aware that
IBM has announced the PTF.  If or when I hear, I will let you know.  If you
are interested, I will ask the other E3 customer if you can speak directly
with him.  Based on what little information that I have, this issue is
probably not limited to E3 but I have very little information.

-|We have not upgraded, but have been "warned" by our purchasing software
-|vendor (E3) that some people have
-|had performance degradations after upgrading to V4R5 with their software.
-|A nightly run was taking 4-5 times longer then before the upgrade.
-|The letter did not mention model numbers, but we are on a 620.
-|Seeing how the software runs (they do not send any source code),
-|my guess is
-|that data base access has been slowed somehow; their software is not the
-|quickest or the leanest that I have seen with it being common to having
-|20-25 files open for a simple purchase order run, and ridiculous file I/O
-|numbers.
-|
-|We at least here are waiting for another month or two before
-|upgrading from
-|V4R4 to V4R5.
