21% here.

Actually, I have no clue, and I haven't used SEU in ages so it's hard to quantify.

With that said, I see 75 lines on my screen vs 19, I open up source quickly with ctrl-shift-A, using the outline I can immediately see all locations a procedure is called from, colored code allows for quicker code digestion, content-assist/autocomplete allows for code completion - which in turn has me using longer more meaningful names w/o the cost of typing (this is huge for me), content assist for immediate field definition and values of constants... that's just off the top of my head without going further.

It definitely makes me more efficient. How much is hard to say. I know the last time I was looking for a job I was willing to scrap RPG altogether if I had to work strictly from SEU - fortunately I didn't have to put that resolution to the test.

I'm definitely NOT 5% more productive on the whole. There might be
certain circumstances where it makes me 5% more productive... but
there are also circumstances where I'm more productive with SEU.

I find it very, very hard to believe that anyone is 5% more productive with RDi on the whole.

And any circumstance where someone says something like 20% or higher...
they are lying to you to try to sell something, because that's just totally absurd.

Is there anyone on this list who would not claim that they are as a
