What overhead per page there might be, or how the pages are organized in tracks is an OCO matter.
One might experiment with various BLKSIZES, perhaps 80, 6160, 20480, and 32720 (32760 is invalid for FB 80); write a few thousand records alike to each, and use DSLIST to measure tracks used. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
