Ken: Bingo we have a winner… A long time ago memory popped up with this. The programmers found out about it and started using it. We started getting calls about test turn around. After a bit of digging we figured out the issue. We got busy and wrote some minor JES2 code to disregard the number of lines when it came time to figure out priority. Complaints dropped dramatically when we implemented it.
