Guidelines for better runtime performance
Lite objects and high speed are always very appreciated in a COBOL application, but compiling and running programs with default settings does not always provide them. This chapter is intended to help you in tuning performance and optimize programs in order to obtain the best from your COBOL application.
The most important actions to be performed in order to optimize performance are:
use -server Java option, if available
avoid debug information in the programs
avoid logging the Runtime activity
In the next pages you will find further information about performance tuning.
