Whether or not to save access paths when doing an unload/reload

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

Normally we don't save access paths.  However we flipped a little switch 
to start saving access paths.  And we really didn't notice a significant 
change in time.  However we do omit a large number of libraries.

I have an unload/reload scheduled shortly for this machine.  Last time I 
did an unload/reload, and didn't save access paths, it took DAYS for all 
of the access paths to rebuild.  But that was an earlier model, and many 
versions of OS ago.  I am thinking that when we run the save that we 
should save access paths.

What y'all think?


What get's run on a nightly basis (along with SAVDLO, SAV, etc), and 
didn't really very much when we changed &ACCPTH:
