ILBODSP

ILBODSP is the COBOL routine that prints, punches, or types one print line of data on an output unit.

Hints

ILBODSP is called if the source program uses the TRACE statement. It is called every time the program being traced progresses from one paragraph to the next.

Usually DISPLAY is used for low-volume messages. If significant CPU activity is noted for module ILBODSP, investigate what is being displayed. Perhaps you can remove debugging messages, for example, to save time. If the displayed information is actually an output report, recoding the DISPLAY into MOVE and WRITE statements could save CPU time.
