One choice I've used that can slash run time on batch jobs by as much as
80% is to remove the "K" on the F-spec lines for disk input/update files.
Processing a data file in arrival sequence instead of keyed sequence just
seems to make tons of differences.

Hi all,

What are the best options available to reduce the batch job run time?
We have a daily batch job which runs about 4 hours, and which calls 10
different programs. All these programs are independent of each other and
can
be called in any sequence. Looking for best options to reduce the batch
job
run time.

thanks in advance.

Ray
