Understood. My point was actually agreeing with you that it doesn't make
sense to to a SAVCHGOBJ at times. EVEN IF you are only touching 20% of
the objects if they represent 90% of the storage you might as well do a
full save every night. Clearly if you're touching 95%+ of the objects a
SAVCHGOBJ is pointless.

Walden,

I understand what you are saying but in the context of SAVCHGOBJ it WAS
the shear number of objects that were getting changed/accessed on a
daily basis. If by the 2nd day, 95%+ of the stuff had been "touched",
what's the point, use SAVLIB. And I understand what you say, in that a
big file getting hit once in a while would not trigger, but we had
everything, including the big ones getting "touched" so it made no sense
to us. And any restore was much easier :-)

Chuck

It's not so much % of objects as % of object sizes. We've seen
production environments where 90% of the size in in 10% of the objects
-- and guess what, it's those 10% that change every day. The big files
are usually things like item, order, order detail, customer, inventory,
shipment, etc. These are the files that will change every day. The State
Master or Tax table may not change that often, but in the grand scheme
of things are tiny.
