Error description

  • Error Message: NA
    .
    Stack Trace: NA
    .
    A temporary solution was introduced through APAR IJ35969 that
    includes a workaround to deactivate the fix for IJ32927 in order
    to address the issue with the system's performance. This current
    fix resolves the performance issue when the IJ32927 fix is
    activated..
    

Local fix

  • N/A
    

Problem summary

  • When the user method is invoked the latest user defined class
    loader (LUDCL) cache is refreshed at different points in the
    code by walking the stack, some of the points are called more
    ofter than where the LUDCL is actually needed. This causes the
    cache to be refreshed and perform a stackWalk more times than
    LUDCL is used.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Remove the points of refresh where it is not required so a
    stackWalk is performed at most as many times the LUDCL is
    needed, or less if already cached.
