I think I agree with David on this one.... On iSeries, SLS ensures that a program object is only loaded into main storage once. Each job that invokes that program manages the memory used by that program object for that instance. This seems more akin to MRT, at least from main storage POV.

I don't think so -- the instance specific data is usually on the
requesters machine, e.g. hidden input fields on a web page, or cookies.
Afaik, once a web page has been delivered to a browser, the system
forgets about it.

Yes, in this day and age we are no longer concerned with whether the
program is in memory or not -- the OS handles that. But the main
difference between SRT and MRT is whether the program has to maintain
information about the requester's process -- an SRT program does not, an
MRT program does.


In the System i world ... aren't all programs MRT's except the system
handles the instance specific data?
