One customer of mine has tens of thousands of test CICS regions. You want one? You get one - probably staying up the rest of the day after 15 mins playing with it. :-) For them it's not going to be single-CP constraints or virtual memory or anything like that. :-) Though the memory impact of all those regions is very severe. :-(
(Just tossing in another data point.) But I still think for most customers the aggregate size of loaded (or ideally would be loaded) modules in a single region is not much of a factor. 100-200MB tops. I could be wrong. :-) Martin Packer, Mainframe Performance Consultant, zChampion Worldwide Banking Center of Excellence, IBM +44-7802-245-584 email: [email protected] Twitter / Facebook IDs: MartinPacker Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
