Re: Any thoughts

The compiler was improved.  I would hope that, over time, if an
updated compiler is provided by IBM, that it would generate, among
other things, faster code.  I would bet that Barbara could give you
more details as to why, but consider the other advantages, besides
speed of execution.  Re-usable modules, static or dynamic binding,
multiple executable modules that use different source types (SQL, CL,
RPGLE) in one program, etc. etc.
