APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
This is not a real defect. Currently When netmalloc error checklevel is set to 5 or above, OSTD is turned on, which will use a fixed size 11 hash size bucket. If a machine has a lot of cpus and with heavy load, and OSTD is turned on, it will have performance impact. We are enhancing it by setting ostd hash bucket size based on the number of cpus running on the box at boot time.

Problem summary
This is not a real defect. Currently When netmalloc error checklevel is set to 5 or above, OSTD is turned on, which will use a fixed size 11 hash size bucket. If a machine has a lot of cpus and with heavy load, and OSTD is turned on, it will have performance impact. We are enhancing it by setting ostd hash bucket size based on the number of cpus running on the box at boot time.
Problem conclusion
At boot time, we set ostd hash bucket size to be max(11, number_of_cpu_running), of which 11 is the old default value.
