Kirk,

A rexx exec is processing a file system. First call to bpxbatch perform ls
looping on the directories listed in the root to look for specific files
(ignore the logix, it was dictated by a uniprocessor and a mixture of
software).
I noticed that every call to unix creates (or starts) a shadow STC to
process the command. My assumption is that the way it works affects elapse,
and maybe, cpu consumption. I want the program to be as efficient as
possible.

so, to summarize:

   - The Program is a (tso) rexx running unix commands.
   - Using the default shell of the user.
   - I want to eliminate the STC, or keep it for the life of the exec.
   - The quoted statement relates to the fact that I assume it is less
   effective to run unix outside of the address space.
