EXECLOAD simply loads it, so it saves on I/O, no more no less, no tokenization like what happens on OS/2. Compliling will save CPU cycles, but the compiled exec is larger, hence EXECLOAD of a compiled exec is even more recommended.
2007/1/4, Don Russell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Is there any performance benefit to compiling a REXX EXEC if it will be EXECLOAD'd for the lifetime of it's use? For example, I have a service machine which, upon startup, EXECLOADs some EXECs it needs over and over. It/they remain EXECLOADd until the service machine is shutdown. The EXEC is not particularly complex/large, but does compiling it actually make any difference? Does EXECLOAD tokenize/optimize the EXEC if it's not compiled? Thank you, Don Russell
