Actually, back in the days of the AS/400, EDI, with it's extremely intensive string manipulation, could really be a load on the machine.

This type of work load saw the most dramatic performance improvement with the switch to RISC.


The tier pricing problem was with us back then too. I was at one shop, where it was cheaper to buy a small model 400 (RISC replacement for model 200) just to run Premenos (TrustedLink) rather than run it on a larger system (5xx model) at the time.

Would have made more sense to license (and limit) by transaction volume. Then let you run it on whatever box you want.
