Replying to a message from a few weeks ago; something just made me thing of it 
again.
What are the "performance implications" that you refer to here?  And what is 
your recommended alternative?  A STEPLIB for every job step?

I just read something interesting:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/basics/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.zos.zjcl/zjclc_jclEXECsearch.htm
"For a multi-step job, using the JOBLIB DD statement is
most efficient when most of the programs reside in private libraries.  For a 
multi-step job, using the STEPLIB DD statement is
most efficient when most of the programs reside in system, rather than private,
libraries."
