Dear Jørgen,

Thanks a lot for your help.

When you talk about .............

Do you some documentation about Performance issue with R/3 on iSeries OS/400, 
please ?.

Besides, we can see that the Z customer code is using a lot of cpu, that the 
response
time is bad, and the hardware is working on limit. So, we have now 400 
concurrents users
but in the future the users will be about 1400.

So, the sizing was made with imcomplete data. 

Thamks your comments.

Martín.
