1. CPW is the Commercial Processing Workload that is used to measure the performance of
all iSeries and AS/400e processors. The CPW value is measured on maximum
configurations. The type and number of disk devices, the number of workstation
controllers, the amount of memory, the system model, other factors, and the application
being run determine what performance is achievable. With the introduction of Dedicated
Servers for Domino, Simple Mail Users has been added as a performance measurement.
For more details, see “Commercial Processing Workload” on page 41.
