Re: File w/Large Number of Members

I hope that you are doing it in batch.  A member of a file, is really like
an object.  It's going to take time.

Hello list,

I'm working with an application that has a work file that builds up a
large number of members while the application is running.  It takes
several hours to complete.  I even bumped into IBM's restriction of no
more than 32,767 members in a physical file with this one.

I'm have a minor issue with deleting the work file when I'm all done.
When the file has 30,000+ members in it, it can take more than an hour
for a DLTF to run.  Has anyone ever run across this before?  Are there
any tricks out there to speed up the file deletion process?
