On our MVS system, both jobtime and CPU according to SAS increase when the
system is heavily loaded. I assume (ass u me) the job is "charged" for
swapping.

Dear SAS-Lers,
I have run a SAS program several times on the VAX and I have found that the
CPU time and I/O reported in each SAS log was different. As the program has
always been the same and the CPU time does not depend on the current usage
of the VAX, I would expect the CPU time to be the same in the logs. Could
someone explain to me what's happening?
Thanks in advance for your help.
