I could not post to bit.listserv.jes2-l.

We have done exhaustive testing in trying to pinpoint why JES2
is waiting anywhere from 1-4 seconds between sending blocks
to a Sun emulating a 3770 SNA/RJE station. This includes Sniffer
and GTF traces that show the link idle for the above time while
we wait for JES2 to send the next block.


What can we do to "tune" JES2?  We have gone through tuning the NCP and cannot
see any better results.  Is there some buffer pool tuning that can be done to
"pre-read" disk spool data in JES2 so that spool data can be sent from the 
buffer pool instead of waiting to read the disk? Is there internal throttle that
JES2 is using that can be modified?

Any help will be appreciated.
