Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Compile running extremely slow when using  OPT(2) &
  ZONEDATA(NOPFD)
  

Local fix

• use ZONEDATA(NOPFD)  or  OPT(0)
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.2 compiling     *
  *                 with compiler options OPT(1|2) and           *
  *                 ZONEDATA(NOPFD|MIG) experiencing             *
  *                 excessive compilation time.                  *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Excessive compile time.                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
  ****************************************************************
  Some optimizations must be disabled when using
  ZONEDATA(NOPFD|MIG) to ensure increased compatibility with
  COBOL V4 and earlier. The check for a particular optimization
  could be excessive.
  

Problem conclusion

• The compiler was updated to avoid excessive checks when
  possible.
  

Temporary fix
