Re: V5R1 slow?

[SCarter@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Jim,
We experienced the same thing the first week after oour upgrade to V5r1.
It seems that the oobjects especially the DB files
are getting converted to the new OS and DB2 formats. As you touch each
object the conversion is done and once converted
performance returns to normal.  This Lasted the full first week for us
until we had touched all of our most commonly used objects, and
continued sporadically until some of the lesser used objects were used.

I'm still digging through the archives.  As you might imagine there are
lots
of hits on V5R1 and performance.

We upgraded our 12-way 740 dinosaur to V5R1 this past weekend.  We're
dealing with real and perceived slowness issues, particularly in batch.
Our
applications are largely traditional RPG -- there's not a lot of SQL.  The
only wild guesses I have are:

* Are our old SPD disk controllers ill-suited to V5R1?
* Is the auto performance adjuster making some really bad decisions?

Were there any other "head's up" issues with V5R1 that I can't remember
reading?  Help would be greatly appreciated.  Much thanks...
