Re: large difference in job run times between bound procedure call, and procedure call from within program.

And I wouldn't actually recommend sticking a cycle module in a service program
or even as a submodule in a program. I'm not sure I'd even actively recommend using a cycle module as the main module for a *PGM, although I wouldn't particularly recommend against it either.

So if I read a bit between the lines, you/IBM don’t recommend the usage of cycle main procedures at all.

But there are some significant differences between cycle mains and linear mains - e.g. when unhandled exceptions occur. Therefore we still use cycle mains for our main programs, even if we do not like it a lot.

Is there any way, or plan, to have linear main procedures behave the same way as cycle main procedures in the case of unhandled exceptions?

Daniel
