RE: Performance tips for WAS Express 6.0

There are a ton of things you can do to help your programs, but a lot
depends on how you write your code.  Are you accessing data files?  If
so, how?  Are you using JDBC?  Connection pools?   EJBs?   Also, be sure
you have a separate pool set up for the web application server.  Since
web app servers are Java applications, they require a JVM.  JVM paging
requirements seem to be at odds with normal OS/400 paging so they work
best when they have their own pool with anywhere from 500MB on up,
depending on the size of your application.
