No problem, but please allow me to snip from the bottom... I'm using the same compile and link parms (where they are the same), and I am compiling NOTEST.
IIRC, Tom Ross gave several reasons for the increase in program object size from 4 to 5. The only one I can find from his SHARE presentation is on page 82: "Binder solved existing problems using new features. A program object can have a text size of up to 1 gigabyte. COBOL can take advantage of this by having more constants for improved MOVE and INITIALIZE performance. Makes object size bigger" (From "zOMG The Next COBOL Compiler has Arrived!") Greg Shirey Ben E.

In an attempt to not hijack the thread I'm changing the subject line. Do you have some significant differences in your compile or link parms between COBOL 4 and COBOL 5? What would be accounting for the rather significant load module size growth between 4 and 5?
