> AMODE 64 code will run slower than AMODE 31 code

Really? Because the compile will generate extra instructions or similar, or
inherently because of the hardware architecture?

I thought there was some discussion here recently that dismissed the latter
(other than a trivial factor).

AMODE 64 COBOL is still being worked on here at IBM.

I (like the other poster) would like to know what you would do with AMODE 64
COBOL?
Also, does everyone realize that AMODE 64 code will run slower than AMODE 31
code?
We assume that AMODE 64 COBOL will be used for very specialized one-off
cases to solve specific business problems, and that in general 99% of code
will be compiled for
