In 9.1 (Linux 64 bit) when a buffer pool is set to self-tuning, does this
imply that the blocked versus non-blocked aspect is also self-tuning?
If not, what is a good rule of thumb for a 64 bit system using the Linux
file system for containers for the tablespace using that buffer pool?
Thanks

Going from memory, but I am pretty sure that STMM does not affect the
block size or number of block pages in a bufferpool.
I have heard a rule of thumb of 2-3% of a bufferpool being allocated
to the block-based area.
FYI, block-based bufferpools are useful for data warehousing and large
batch jobs because they allow the prefetchers to handle sequential
prefetch requests more efficiently. If your app doesn't do a lot of
sequential prefetching, then this won't be a useful feature.

This is exactly my project. Tons of inserts into a warehouse.
I don't understand what you say regarding prefetching. I thought that
prefetching helps mainly for SELECTS, *reading*. From what you say it
seems like it helps inserts?
On a related issue, since normally nothing is ever deleted from this db, I
have all tables' APPEND flag on. Does this factor in into the rule of
percentage of blocked versus non-blocked?
Thanks.

Sequential prefetch = reading data: the DB2 prefetchers detect when a
query is requesting sequential pages of data from a tablespace, and then
will start automatically fetching pages (under the assumption that the
query will request them).

have all tables' APPEND flag on. Does this factor in into the rule of

No. Block-based bufferpools are for reading, not writing.

This is correct. In fact, you cant manually change the size of the
block area without restarting the database.

hi,
recently i discovered a memory leak in our code; after some investigation i
could reduce it to the following problem:
return objects of functions are handled as temporary objects, hence their
dtor is called immediately and not at the end of the function. to be able to
use return objects (to avoid copying) i often assign them to a const
reference.
now, casting a const return object from a function to a non-const reference
