That's true, but if you've got a real PIG of a subroutine that's invoked via 
LINK, etc. the CPU time will be accounted as part of the main program's CPU 
time. Not necessarity a good picture, expecially if this subroutine is used by 
multiple callers.

Rick,
That is very true. One side issue is that every once in a while there is a 
program that *NOBODY* knows about and you have done your home work researching 
where it might be called from. You cannot find any obvious answer so after 
notifying everyone you delete the module and all of a sudden a lot of programs 
abend with an S806 etc... You quickly put it back and everything is back to 
normal, meanwhile you have egg on your face. That has been the issue since day 
1 of of os/360 and it is still valid today. Unless you have a front end to 
fetch and keep your own numbers you are playing craps with 
possibility. Personally I would love to know via SMF say a record is cut with 
totals every so often (user specifiable) that would help a lot. It would be 
nice to have other information as well (library found in or link list library 
number).
It seems a reasonable thing to do maybe some one has written a SHARE 
requirement or should submit one.
