It's been around for quite a while. I did some basic performance testing
vs. writeseq and *if* the optimal settings were used it was a little

Sorry, I don't recall which option it was

Here is the dict item we use to do precisely this. This is actually built by SB+ so
could be cleaned up a bit
001: V
002: @ID; '*'; F1; SUBR('-CATS',REUSE(@2),@3); SUBR('-CATS', REUSE(@1), @4)
003:
004: Remote Key
005: 20L
006: MV
Please note that F1 is actually a D type dict in the file an
