Steve,

I'm pretty sure that IEBGENER's BSAM buffering is NCP=5.

Google tells me that FASTGENR is from SEA.

OK, maybe.  I have only vague memory that it's QSAM operator, where IEBGENER is 
BSAM, and evidently, one buffer.

It's also a fairly trivial exercise to write your own "fast" copy program.
QSAM is pretty fast with optimal bufferage.  However, I assume that the SORT 
programs are going to win with large datasets.
