I was working for a client in Ft Worth a few years back.
One of their employees was an oil & gas accountant who came from a mainframe
environment, and at every turn he was complaining about the slowness of the
AS/400 (OK - this was in the 90's...).
One day when mr. mainframe accountant was bellyaching about the slowness of
the system, I used WRKACTJOB and sequenced the display by CPU %, showing
that *he* was utilizing 95 % of the CPU by running a Query/400
interactively.
My response to him was "It would not be so slow if there wasn't an asshole
tkaing 95 percent of the CPU by running a query interactively!"
His response back to me was "You don't know *me* well enough to insult me!".
I didn't get fired, and we later became friends... ;-D

@Charles:
maybe we have very diffrent roles in projects and our experiences are very
diffrent...
my role ist mostly, that somebody complains about lousy db2/400 performance
or is saying: "this report takes more than ..., we need it within ...
and --- my custumors want to have answers within two days maximum => no time
for playing around with nice toys!!!
@MTI: there is no reference to the originating queries, I have no choice to
make them persistent, there is no controll over keeping and deleting
@PlanCache: I didn't find any usefull information in the plancache,
regardless how often I delete it.
@Index Advisory files: ROTFL 99% rubbish!!!
have a nice evening
