Thats curious.   The code uses the C library to do dataset I/O and of course
you would have pipe I/O between the processes.
One variable is whether you have Unicode Services enabled for these
codepages or not - we fall back to ICONV() if not, which can be more
expensive.  Might also be some LE (CEERUNOPTS)  tuning problem.  What DCBs
are the datasets?   I'd like to see if I can reproduce this problem.
