I'm curious - how much time did you save by preallocating the PDS?

I'm mystified that it made a difference since Lionel never used the allocate
"dd" in the call to "cp".  Only SVC 99 knows.
I was doing some testing on this last week. The overhead appears to be obtaining and freeing the enqueue on the PDS for each member. If you already have a SHR enqueue this is bypassed. The cp command needs to run in the same address space that obtained the enqueue.
