Re: Physical File Performance

At "one time", IBM had a special lab set up for researching and
dealing with very large files on the 400. I have not read or seen
anything about that in a while, but I do recall a story on the lab
in one of the trade rags. If it still exists, it would almost 
certainly be worth your while to contact those folks.

That's a pretty large file for almost any system....
