I am on Jbase now, and it refuses to build an index on any I-descriptor, so
I can't test this. So, I'll take your word for it and file this under You
learn something new every day.
Thanks,

Use LIST.INDEX filename and check under the Build column, indexes

The DISABLE.INDEX ENABLE.INDEX commands can be used to turn off/on

Do the subroutines do anything that have temporal dependencies? That is, are
the values dependent on anything other than @ID and @RECORD, such as an
external value coming from somewhere?

But, as Henry mentioned, if the subroutines are accessing data in
I think I have now grasped it! Thank you all who responded. Obviously,
any I-descriptors in a file that refer to other files will not be
re-evaluated to automatically update a secondary index when one of those
other files is updated, unless the parent file (of the I-descriptors) is
itself
