I doubt very much that tracing did anything to improve the performance. If
anything, it impedes performance. There is most likely something else
going on in the environment, though what I do not know.

I turned on tracing and ran an archive with the following command:
dsmc archive -traceflag=service,memory

I'm got tracing turned on now so we will see if that reveals anything.

We also recently migrated from SCSI attached 3590E drives to SAN
attached 3592 drives (both in a 3494 library).
Unfortunately, we only saw an increase in the performance with
the new tape drives.

Just a minor thought: Your COMMMethod is probably TCPIP, meaning that
the I/O would be going through the TCP/IP
