Performance considerations

The performance of PSF and its attached printers is dependent upon availability and efficiency of memory, storage, DASD, and channel and network resources in the system configuration. Performance is also highly dependent upon the content of the print data streams being processed. In general, data-intensive applications, such as those containing images, require more resources than applications that contain plain text. If performance degradation is experienced, standard system performance analysis and tuning should be conducted before you contact IBM service.
