Since z/OSMF is written in java, then why can't that high-CPU work run
on another platform such as Power or x86, and then communicate with the
mainframe for the z/OS work (i.e. submit jobs or whatever it does to run
the actual installation). Or am I thinking too far out of the box?

I wouldn't be surprised if once people start using z/OSMF, it's not
just the startup that is slow on a small system. Maybe IBM should give
everyone one zIIP with their z/OS 2.5 license... it might even be a
useful stimulus for smaller z/OS sites.
100% agree. The z/EDC ASIC is now free and on-die on the new hardware.
IBM should do the same with at least 1 zIIP.
