The COBOL Performance Tuning paper talks about the performance differences of using EXEC CICS LINK vs COBOL dynamic CALL. Perhaps this will be helpful to you. You can find the performance tuning paper on the COBOL page at: http://www.ibm.com/software/awdtools/cobol/library/ (scroll down near the bottom of the page). The most current one is Enterprise COBOL Version 4 Release 2 Performance Tuning (which is at the top of the list). The CICS section starts on page 27.
