Suggestion for improving loop performance

Folks,

We are trying to process a 69 million records file which is taking 5 hours plus to load into another file. (We have Block *Yes specified for the input file (with 69M records) We need to bring the processing down for sure..

We are trying for the multithread as well..

There are two crucial loops that run in this single program and causing trouble.

The first loop takes round about .6 seconds/rec processed the other one .4 seconds.

Our file is a flat file and is | delimited ..

Loop 1
D ARRAY1 S 5 0 DIM(999)
C '|' SCAN DATA ARRAY1
C Eval X= 1
C Eval A= 0
C Dow ARRAY1(X) > 0
C Eval A+=1
C Eval X+=1
C ENDDO




Loop2
C DOW A < #Pipesreq (Number of pipes actually required)
C Eval Fileds = %subst(fileds:1:%checkr(' ':Fileds)) + '|'
C eval A+=1
C ENDDO


Any suggestion will be highly appreciated..



Thanks,
Ashwani Singh
