Why my system WAS so sluggish!

Thanks to everyone who contributed their thoughts and information to this
thread. The 400 community is a great "nation" of people and, as we all know,
the 400 is a damn good box to make a living with...now if we can only
convince IBM!

The reason for my sluggishness turned out to be a bad battery attached to
one of the I/O cards. There was a message logged in QHST informing of a
damaged I/O card but alas, it was only 2 lines and no more! So if you
scrolled past it as I initially did...Too bad that message is not repeated
as happens when an ASP threshhold percentage is being challenged. Boy, did
it slow us down and it appears as if there was absolutely ZERO reflection of
this within the software tools IBM has provided us. Still, I wouldn't trade
in my career on the 400 for any other box and with all of the talented
people in our user group, nothing can escape us for too long!

Thanks again,

Rick Rayburn
