RE: JDBC performance issues after moving to Java 8

There is a Mutex trap in QMGTOOLS you might want to look into.  iDoctor
comes in handy here too since the Mutex is found in a PEX trace.

Subject: Re: JDBC performance issues after moving to Java 8

The utility Charles pointed me to is not showing a DNS issue. what we are
seeing is that the program sits in TIMA status most of the time, and
periodically shifts over to RUN just long enough so that if we sit WRKACTJOB
and repeatedly press F5 it will go to RUN and immediately back to TIMA every
once in a while. Another thing we are seeing is that there are generally
three Mutexes out there for the job, but once again if we repeatedly refresh
the screen, that periodically will drop down to 1, and immediately back to
three.
