Re: Buffering of DB output with *INLR=*OFF

Whatever you do, don't use FRCRATIO if performance is important.

Don't use FEOD either.....

However, if you're on a recent OS version, FEOD(N) could be used.

FEOD(N) flushes the RPG buffer to the DB, so you can see the records, but doesn't force the data to
disk. So the performance hit of FEOD(N) isn't as bad as that of FEOD without the (N).

Thanks for clarifying the difference. It's been a while since I looked at the docs for FEOD, since I didn't really think it was likely the best option (but thought I'd mention it since it is a possible solution).

What makes FRCRATIO so bad? I'd think FEOD would be worse.
