RE: How big is my i?

WRKHDWRSC *PRC will give you the process feature code. You can then
GOOGLE the code to see what the CPW is rated at. WRKLICINF will give
you the P## number but that really is no indication of CPW

But are you running interactive or batch? Some older systems have the
interactive crippled while a newer smaller box will not if you purchase
the enterprise edition.

How much RAM is allocated to the subsystem that the job is running in?

How many disk arms are there? What is the disk controller?

All of these items make a difference on an individual job performance.

First, what are the "things" I would look at to relate one box to
another
concerning processing power?



Second, how do I display those things so I can to the comparison? (i.e.
DSPSYSVAL QMODEL)



Scenario:

I have two machines. The one I perceived to be much smaller runs a
particular QShell program (sed) in no time flat (less than 1 second),
and
the same program on the perceived larger machine takes 77 seconds. Both
machines have plenty of disk and both machines have less than 10% CPU
usage.
