Sorry, Rob, but I would have to say that your idea of SPOOLCHN sounds to
me like "bit twiddling" when someone would calculate that 2 LR
instructions used a cpu cycle less than 1 SS instruction. CPU cycles
are getting cheap. I don't doubt that there are installations that
couldn't afford to use cycles, but SPOOLCHN will do a lot more than look
for damaged spool files.

I think that is pretty overkill. Its purpose is to walk the chains of
spool blocks when the structure is damaged or you have lost a spool
volume. It requires a lot of resources and authorization. In a normal
situation you should have enough with class D queries...
