PI56423: INCREASE IN COBOL CPU DURING COMPILE WITH OPT(1) AND OPT(2)

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Increase in performance time for a COBOL program compiled with
  OPT(1) or OPT(2).  May also receive message IGYRC5122-U - A
  recursive entry to the COBOL abort module occurred.
  Abend u1122 also may be seen.
  

Local fix

• Compile with OPT(0)
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V5.2 compiling     *
  *                 programs that contain a large number of      *
  *                 EXEC CICS HANDLE statements and compiling    *
  *                 with options OPT(1) or OPT(2).               *

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Compiler performance: Excessive         *
  *                      compile time.                           *

  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
  *                                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The compiler was not able to process a large number of EXEC
  CICS HANDLE statements efficiently due to flow analysis
  complication which caused excessive compile time.
  

Problem conclusion

• Compiler was changed to apply new optimization technique that
  simplifies flow graph thus reducing compilation time.
  

Temporary fix
