I am reminded that we do not use service programs as they use dynamic calls and that would mean the same as going back to RPGIII.

Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know where your group got the idea that service programs are dynamic calls. I'd advise a re-read of the ILE Concepts manual. In brief,
Service program procedures are bound by reference.
Module procedures are bound by copy.
RPG III programs are bound at run-time, and use dynamic CALL.

I'd use RPG400-L to discuss specifics of performance in RPG; there is a larger pool of RPG people there. To discuss service programs in general, I'd use MIDRANGE-L, for the same reason: you aren't reaching the audience who can help you the best by posting this question here.
