  • Subject: RE: LIBL limitation of 25 libraries

Most people don't appear to consider the overhead involved if the system
is searching for objects using *LIBL. The bigger the LIBL the greater
the overhead. The LIBL should not be something recklessly thrown
together ("just add it to the library list") and libraries should be
added and removed as applications are entered and exited. 25 entries is
more than enough - if it appears not to be, you need to reconsider your
LIBL design.
