IEFBR14 already does as near to nothing as possible (SR R15,R15 BR
R14, well I guess you
could remove the SR but that wouln't save much). It is also in LPA, so
you don't even have to
load it when you run it. Many people use this to create/delete
datasets. The only thing I think
you can do is move what ever DD cards are use to other steps so that you
don't use IEFBR14
at all. This may not allways be feasable, and I doubt it is woth the
trouble anyway. Why do you
care what program is run most often any way? If it is not a big resource
user what difference
does it make.
As to IDCAMS, I am supprised it is a big CPU user, but without knowing
what is being
done by it, or what other programs you run it is hard to say if this is
a problem. Depending
on what it is being used for, their may or may not be replacements
available.

At my shop I have been pulling usage stats and IDCAMS is always our #1
CPU user right after 2 custom programs.
IEFBR14 is one of our most USED program with ~1500 uses a day.
We have switched to ICEGENER over the IEB version and I was wondering
if any type of replacement or better program existed for these two.
I know the request is very broad and the details weak, if anyone would
like me to see just how IDCAMS is being used and post that I will
tomorrow.
Thank you,
