I was using two commands. One to copy the IFS-based file to a flat file and then copy it back to a different location.

I don't see why you can't say exactly which commands. CPYTOIMPF,
CPYFRMIMPF? CPYTOSTMF, CPYFRMSTMF?

In any event, that approach (of using an intermediate flat file) is
almost definitely wrong. You should be using the CPY command from CL,
or using cp from Qshell or PASE. These will directly copy the stream
file.

I would be surprised if your program is faster than all of the
direct-copy commands, since presumably those commands are themselves
either equivalent to what you wrote, or even more highly optimized.
