This good to know. RFS should speed things up then. Do you know what the paging mechanism is, when the shared memory gets full? LIFO, block (record) stats...

The RFS system buffer is a chunk of shared memory that keeps track of records read from and/or updated to recoverable files. In other words, it's maintained at the logical record level. If a requested record is found in the system buffer, no attempt is made to retrieve the record from disk. I/O to non-recoverable files goes straight to the O/S I/O routines, just as when RFS is not active.
