My original numbers were from the model 170.  Why it performed so poorly is a 
good question, but not one I can answer, since it's no longer in my posession.  
The new numbers, much closer to what you expected, Nathan, come from the model 
270.  I'm hoping that WebSphere 3.0 will reduce my Java numbers, but I doubt 
they'll be reduced a factor of 10.

>I think the 3-1 ration was a mistake, Jon.  I think the correct ratio was
30-1.  On a 460 CPW machine, it shouldn't be taking 25msec to read 20
records from a file, build a subfile, then display the result on a 5250
device.  For example, it takes my 300 Mhz Celeron PC only 4msec to read 51
records from a database table and copy them to another table.

If I correctly follow Joe Pluta's later comments, his earlier 5250 estimate
was too high.

Nathan.
