Upload vs. CPYFRMIMPF

9406-600 running V5R2.  I have a pc program which spits out text files (most 
400K, some 1.5gig), then I run them through a VB program to format the data, 
upload it, then run an RPG program to assimilitate with master file data.

I was thinking the other day that I could have the program spit out the data as 
comma delimited to a shared folder then assimilate.  I got a small test to work 
and I'm trying a 400K file now and it's taking much longer than the VB/upload 
process did.  Shouldn't it be faster?  The other process didn't take that long 
but took lots of babysitting.  Thoughts?  TIA.
