KICKS

A transaction processing system for CMS & TSO

The 251 project

________________________________

The 251 project was a demonstration of over 250 TSO sessions running KICKS workloads on the legacy MVS "turnkey" system under Hercules. Sub-second average response time was achieved accessing shared vsam files. Here are the response time stats for that run, and here is an MF1 report showing system load during the run.
