If AOC still comes compiled, then having the REXX compiler is probably still 
recommended. Without the REXX compiler, you will need to use the alternate REXX 
runtime library which is very slow. If I remember correctly, I think it 
decompiles and then runs the REXX interpreted (if I remember correctly).


I don't think that compiling your programs was a true recommendation. I think 
the attitude was that since you had the compiler, then you might as well 
compile your exec's too.
