You need to use colons to separate the tmpdbspace names so they will be
used. The initialization process forces you to use commas, but the engine
won't recognize them till ya edit the onconfig to use colons. I have seen
way too many Informix databases not using tmpdbspaces because of this.

Not using your temp dbspaces?? Three mentioned, where are they on disk,

this looks odd.

Humm ...
If you have the memory, make it RESIDENT 1

All looks like KAIO, shut NUMAIOVPS down to 2
> NUMAIOVPS 6 # Number of IO vps
Logbuff could go bigger - 64k and monitor

Could have a few more LRUs if mainly OLTP - say 64

Try using the following - oh yes,mash it up Harry
RA_PAGES 64 # Number of pages to attempt to read ahead
RA_THRESHOLD 16 # Number of pages left before next group> # Read Ahead Variables
> RA_PAGES 16 # Number of pages to attempt to readahead
