Peter answered your questions about LNKLST(s).
To answer the part of your question "What I am trying to do is ...", in
addition of Peter's last remark: you can give the LLA/VLF performance to
any user library, without the need to make it a LNKLST dataset of any
kind.

Subject: LLA/VLF -- NAMED LNKLST?

My memory is hazy on this. Been digging through various manuals for z/OS
1.13. [Haven't had to do real sysprog stuff since z/OS 1.4...]

I seem to recall something about Named LNKLST.  But I can't find
anything on it in the current manuals (I have some number of PDFs on my
hard drive for z/OS 1.13). I have also been looking at ABCs of z/OS
Systems Programming VOL2 (SG24-6982).

Or have I completely confused a couple of concepts?

What I am trying to do is improve performance of certain "systems", and
I thought there was a way to have LLA w/VLF do this but my brain keeps
rebelling - Perhaps my problem is my brain has hard associated LLA with
Linklist Look Aside as opposed to Library Look Aside?

But I thought you do not want to take your "user" LOADLIBs and put them
into the LNKLST. And it seems to me if you don't do that, you can't get
a performance boost from LLA/VLF.

What is bringing this up are things I have found in looking at CICS/TS
5.1 and COBOL 5.1.  Since COBOL 5.1 is going to require PDSE and certain
ISV products we have are documented as not doing so well with PDSE over
PDS...

It seems to me that we would want to use the LLA/VLF "native" route. IFF
it is actually going to provide a performance boost over no management
of LOADLIB concatenations.

So what are the pros and cons of this (other than in a PLEX, especially,
we have to do LLA Refresh...)?

Steve Thompson
