I don't believe there are any "hard" limits, Kent. I have never been able to find any absolute numbers. The only advice IBM offers is from Chapter 7 of the ILE Concepts manual:

"Try to limit the number of service programs your application uses.

This may require a service program to be created from more than one module.
The advantages are a faster activation time and a faster binding process.
There are no simple answers for the number of service programs an application
should use. If a program uses hundreds of service programs, it is probably using
too many. On the other hand, one service program may not be practical either."

Hello,
I have been trying to find if there are any limitations to service programs. Is there a limit to the size of service programs? The number of modules that can be bound? The number of procedures exported? Any other limits? We want to be proactive before we hit any limits.
Thanks,
Kent Hohlen
