From a long time ago the length of time was accessing other items than the catalog.

Can MERGECAT performance be improved by altering the buffer space values for either the input or output catalog, or both?

If you have a lot of VSAM, probably not. As I recall, doing a large repro mergecat with a lot of VSAM was very slow, but it was mostly due to the need to go change every vvds entry.

In other words, I don't think you'll get a lot of bang for your buck.
