RE: Call in ILERPG response time slow

["Pytel, Alexei" <pytela1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe your are experiencing activation group creation overhead.
By default ILE program will run in a *NEW activation group.
So if A calls B many times, every time new activation group is created.
Try changing B to run ina *CALLER activation group, this should be much
faster.


    Best regards,
