I am a little unclear about your terminology. When you say "every
iteration", to me that sounds like you've got a loop, and each time
through the loop, you read the same record (or same data area). It
seems to me that you should simply move that operation out of the
loop.

If you mean the program is called repeatedly (a huge number of times,
and very frequently), and each time it is called, it reads the same
record (or same data area), then you can similarly put that operation
into *INZSR, and keep the LR indicator off when returning from the
program, so that it doesn't reinitialize every time.
