As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Not sure how deleted records helps concurrent inserts.
Perhaps also some application uses deleted records to 'preallocate' space.

Not very sure but I seem to remember (long time ago), a comment from an
IBMer about that one of the advantages of a file with REUSDLT(*YES) was
improved performance at the moment of inserting a record, as it was faster
to just insert it into a "slot" in, say, the middle of the file, that going
all the way to the end and insert it there (and extend the file, I suppose).
So I suppose that for a process that, say, delete some hundred/thousands of
records and then create new ones in their place, it would be better NOT to
reorganize the file...
I think that I agree with Chuck that (*maybe*) it would be better to do
RGZPFMs in a very selective way. Of course, every shop is different, and
your mileage can vary...
