Frank:

Good question. To tell the truth, I don't think I've ever saved all 
LPPs at one time. I can think of reasons why certain LPPs might take 
longer than expected, for example if they include significant 
databases as product objects, but I'd have to look over each LPP to 
make any serious guesses.

I won't be surprised if this isn't done very often by 98% of 
listers. Most LPPs perhaps can simply be reinstalled, so no save 
operation is particularly necessary. PTFs that have been applied 
against IBM LPPs can be reason to SAVLICPGM, but even those can now 
be pulled through the internet and reapplied almost as easily as 
keeping up with saving LPPs.

It'll be interesting to see if others have experiences... if others 
do it at all.
