Ron: The only way that I am aware of saving in Rexx is if there is a lot of computations. The I/O using compiled Rexx is the same as the interpreted version. I have written in Rexx since 1984 ...haven't had to use the compiler yet. But I am not a math head ...or someone that requires a ton of math functions.

Program Number 5695014 IBM Library for REXX zSeries Program Number 5695013 IBM Compiler for REXX/370 Till now we still use these products in our System Automation 3.4 and Netview 6.1 environments to compile all the IBM supplied and our own created SA REXX programs. But times changes and my question is if it is still a recommendation to use these products or are SA and Netview changed so much that the use of these products are a lot less profitable than in the past and might be obsolete in that matter. Use of these products besides SA en Netview is rare in our company. First indications are that if SA consumption doubles if not using the compiler/library we still earn money not heaving these products. In other words are there companies still using the REXX library and compiler in the SA and Netview environments to reduce costs?
