Abstract

A summary is presented of the paging activity observed for various programs executing on a System/370 model 145 using OS/VSI (Release 2.0). Paging activity was measured by periodic sampling of the queues involved in real storage page management and by inspection of page traffic counters maintained by the operating system.
