Do the 83 modules represent unique business logic to that process or is it
logic that can re-used? If it logic that belongs to just the program, I
don't see it will help you much.

One thing about modules is that static storage in the module is not loaded
until you access some method in the module. The code is paged in as it is
referenced so you have a really big program but unless a module is referred
the static storage is not allocated.

Once the module is loaded there is really no difference between it being a
module and being in a service program.

If there is common business logic, definitely split it out.

Since the memory for the program will be shared by all instances how will
this help Dave?

I would not have encountered this Brian because I would never put a
module in a binding directory.

If I remember correctly, the ability to list modules in binding
directories was intended as an easy method for building programs
from multiple modules. But few people do that - I certainly don't.


We have a program that is built from ~83 modules. That said... We
are starting a project now to split those modules out each into their own
service program (using *DEFER on the binding). Why? We need to decrease
the size of the memory footprint for this program because it is
long-running and there are ~600 jobs that execute this program as its
main
process.


Sincerely,

Dave Clark
