If you set your initial view to "Volume", this doesn't take that long..
especially
compared to a catalog search using "**" (of course YMMV depending on how 
many TSO* volumes there are).  Plus there's a good chance the VTOC and
VTOCIX are cached (I hope you are all using VTOCIX).   We prevent the
catalog search of generic HLQ with the sample provided exit because it can 
drive the CATALOG asid to use high CPU for a long period of time but have
found no performance problems caused by letting people use the generic
volser since it affects only 1 volume at a time.
