Brian (and John), I've been reading the Cobol and LE books for ILC information. In my z/OS 1.7 LE Writing ILC Applications topic 14.3 there's "Table 61. What Occurs When Non-Language Environment-Conforming Assembler Invokes an HLL Main". for invoking options LOAD and BALR, when LE is up, it says "CEE393 is signaled. You cannot LOAD and BALR a main routine under Language Environment. However, in COBOL, this is supported because the COBOL program would be a subroutine, not a main."
Perhaps I misinterpreted this to mean the Assembler was ok as was.

If not, then each time the assembler program calls the COBOL program, Language Environment builds a brand new runtime environment for the COBOL program to execute within. This overhead will result in additional CPU cost, as well as the behavior you're seeing. The Assembler main program should be made Language Environment-aware. Check the Enterprise COBOL Migration Guide (GC27-1409) on the LE bookshelf for details.
