Re: SnapShot/400 comments

I've used it at a couple of sites and found it very good.  It helps find
the 'resource hogs', whether they be users or particular programs.

It can also be useful removing bottlenecks.  For example, at one place
where we had it, I got the longest running program and ran it by itself.  I
then looked at the various statistics supplied by Snapshot.  It showed the
problem was disk accesses.  I modified the program taking this into
account, and chopped its run time by around 90%.

If you're trying to find out what's chewing up your sytsem resources, or
causing those occasional (or ongoing) slow response times, then I would say
this software will give you the info you need.
