You could use an indirection in the I-Descriptor as well - use a SUBR which then constructs a subroutine name and uses CALL @ syntax.For preference I would resolve all these at the start of a user session in one fell swoop and store the names in a dimensioned named COMMON block, using EQUATES.

It's a business call rather than file size (as long as you have a 64-bit file system of course ;-) 64 bit files have a larger internal addressing structure so are theoretically marginally slower than equivalent 32-bit files and on a like-for-like basis they are larger for the same data volume
