TechTip: Running RPG Programs in Multi-Threaded Jobs
** This thread discusses the article: TechTip: Running RPG Programs in Multi-Threaded Jobs **
It seems to me that people here are choosing performance over data integrity. Which option do you think the CEO, CIO, CFO, stock holders, BOD, etc would prefer? I ran some tests. I encourge others to do the same. I ran several tests over a program with and without Thread(*Serialize), 5,000,000 iterations over several tests. The performance is nearly the same, sometimes the Thread(*Serialize) actually wins. I imagine that database I/O will the bottleneck in most RPG modules, not Thread(*Serialize). Sure wish Barbara would add some input... Chris
