Which is more effieient for CLIST/REXX libraries? the choices are "RECFM=FB, LRECL=255" or "RECFM=FB,LRECL=80"? I lean toward the VB-format, btt I have at least one person here insisting that FB/80 is a "Industry standard" and is absolutely mandatory. The libraries are NOT LLA/VLF managed. Opinions and/or criticisms, please.
