RE: Retrieval of data from memory

Let OS/400 handle it and don't worry.  If the object is used that heavily,
it will stay in memory.  Otherwise, use SETOBJACC.

Subject: Retrieval of data from memory

Hi all,

I need to write a program that reads data into memory, as this data is
accessed many 10,000's of times a day and so I am trying to avoiding
constant access of the data on disk. There is no fixed limit on the number
of records in the file, but probably would be a maximum of 100.

I thought of using an array and lookup op. code on the key of the file.  Is
there any better ways of achieving my desired result?

Also, would managing the memory allocation for the array make a significant
difference to performance?

TIA, and Happy and relaxing Holidays to all.

Regards,
Robin
