Re: VM/370 Hercules Optimisation
2305 was nice because of no seek time. In an Hercules emulated environment, probably doesn't make a difference. I was on the periphery of a 360/75 MVT -> 4341 MVT under VM transition (I got to do some

Re: CP Query
Indeed, and I was just wondering how to report CMSLIB version, and of course GCC brexx etc all have versions. As for the distribution ... why not just have a version in a file on a shared drive and

Re: VM/370 Hercules Optimisation
Note the while VM/370 supports 16M of real memory, only the largest machines had that much installed.?? For example, the S/370 158 only supported 4M, and the uniprocessor 168 only supported 8M.??

Re: VM/370 Hercules Optimisation

My opinion is that of the choices given, 3.13 is the only one that has sufficient stability for me to attempt to develop code for. I also find it to be the only game in town if building for any

Re: OK - So which version of Hercules ...
Adrian, I would compare the performance of 3.13 and 4.2.1. the released 3.13 code is getting a little long in the tooth. I think Roger may had added some fixes to the source (see the GitHub
