I'm doing an analysis of one of our application programs. As part of this, I'm seeing the COBOL code generate a lot of PACK/UNPACK instruction pairs.
Does anyone have an idea on the performance impact of all these (potential millions of executions in a single run)? What's the impact of just the PACK instruction? I see lots of comparisons where COBOL has to generate PACK statements before doing the compare. Thanks, Peter I.
