Hi,

I ran STROBE to analyze the performance for one of the program. It is showing that 25% of CPU is caused due to XMEMORY. Can anyone help what is the reason for the high CPU consumption for Cross Memory. And how it can be optimized.

A short Google search found

In z/OS, a user can access another user's address spaces directly through cross-memory services.
If there's a DB2 address space, I suspect the XMS (Cross Memory Services) is being used transferring data between your program and DB2 (and vice versa).
