Hi *SM fellows,

I'm running TSM 4.2.3.1 on an AIX 4.3.3 system (IBM 6h0) with 2 GB ram, the db 
size is 21 GB, 75 % used, the logpool size is 12 GB. Since 3 weeks (when we 
upgraded from 4.2.1.15), I get massive performance degradation : expire 
inventory takes ages (approx 20 hours) to go through 9 million objects, and 
cache hit ratio is between 94 and 96 %. I tried to increase my bufpoolsize from 
151 MB to 400 in several 100 GB steps without seeing any improvement, and the 
system  is now heavily paging. 
Could you please share your bufpoolsize settings with me, if working in the 
same kind of environment, or give me some advice for tuning the server ?
Thanks in advance !

Arnaud
