John,

Yes, all RPG programs end with *INLR = *on. And it would be 52,000 times because the same pricing routines are called twice for each record.

The pricing routine is a very complex system and I will not be allowed to modify it unless I can justify it and then Q/A has to have the time to test it, which I am told could be a 6 month process. So I am trying to find a way to make it run faster without modifying the one set of programs that makes our business profitable.

Thanks,

Marvin

Marvin,

You didn't reference it, so I have to ask about the most obvious
performance tax - Are you opening and closing these programs every time
you call them, or are they left open at exit?

Leaving the programs open at exit will spare you the cost of program
initialization 26000 times.
