Local Fix:
Introduce hash table for XML pathID cache to reduce the latch 
contention. 
 
db2set DB2_COMPILER_XML_OVERRIDES=00000000000000000000n 
where n can be 1 to 9 
db2stop force 
db2start 
 
The number n represents the power of 2 size of the hash table 
cache (as an example, if n = 7, it will have 128 hash buckets 
for the XML pathID cache).
