RE: Verify vs Compile

Vernon, I can't tell you what made your system slow down, but it _wasn't_
this.  The compiler neither knows nor cares about what will end up being
bound to the program.  It looks at the prototypes to determine (for
example) that GetDayOfWeek is a subprocedure and not an array reference, so
that it can validate its usage correctly, but that is all it does.

If you can reproduce the slow-down I suggest you send it to IBM and let
them see what they make of it.  I verify this kind of stuff with Code/400
every day with no problems.
