New pseudo-delete zparms

We've been told that pages trigger pseudo-delete cleanup when they become > 4% free entries. Please make this % a zparm. We would also like the calculation that triggers pseudo-delete cleanup to use another new zparm for the minimum # of entries that must be empty in a page to trigger pseudo-delete cleanup.

    Hello Bill, We need more background on this request. For now we are closing this idea due to missing information, and if you would like to submit a new idea and provide the requested additional information, we'd be happy to re-review the new idea. Thank you.

    Hello Bill, Could you please give more back ground information? We assume this is requested because current clean up is not aggressive enough and more aggressive clean up may improve your application performance? Our goal is to simplify Db2 behavior and additional zparm option which control the entire subsystem may not be right direction.

    Thank you.
