ptf requirement for the function of optimized web support

here is a question from CEB customers, they are now using web support, and they are complain that there are too many transactions for a single http request, eg, CSOL, CWXN, CWBA, and they use FOR as well, so there will be mirror transaction to read/write the file.so they wonder if we could provide a way to reduce the number of transactions, I introduce the feature of “bypass cwxn” to them, but they are currently in cics 4.2, and will upgrade to cics5.2 in this month, but “bypass cwxn” is available on cics53, as I checked, so they wonder it this could be applied in a ptf, so that they could take advantage of this

    We have no plans to backport this major change in CICS TS 5.3 to CICS TS 5.2. We suggest deploying web owning region(s) running at CICS TS 5.3 level communicating with cics ts 5.2 regions.
