First problem, NEVER us CPU VPs for tcp listener NETTYPE settings. If you want
to know the reasoning then search the IIUG archive of the CDI newsgroup. I
posted a rather extensive explanation last month. Meantime, change the NETTYPE
to:

NETTYPE soctcp,1,50,NET

Likewise one should not run shard memory listeners in NET VPs so any ipcshm
NETTYPE should look like this:

NETTYPE ipcshm,1,50,CPU

Polling the network for requests and connections is what is causing the CPU VP
to spin and run up so much cpu time. Now to your real problem. Yes, if you are
inserting a HUGE record into a table (even more so if you are updating an
existing BLOB row but even for an INSERT) and you only have one CPU VP, other
queries and updates will seem to stall until this one transaction is completed.
Your ONLY solution is more CPUS and more CPU VPs. IFF you have fast processors
(above 550MHZ for most or about 750MHZ for Intel) you can try to run a second
CPU VP on the one CPU. It will certainly improve things during the BLOB loads
but you will have to test and see if the load on your one CPU is too much.
