You can dramatically cut down the cost of RPG string operations if you
declare your strings as VARYING instead of fixed length.  You will have to
deal with the length bytes if you use fixed-form op codes (MOVE, etc.) but
if you stick to EVAL you will be very happy with variable length character
field performance.
