SPEED

SPEED is a performance option that helps reduce the amount of time it takes to load a VSAM file. It has no hidden cost, so it is a good idea to use it. If you do not specify SPEED, RECOVERY is automatically used. RECOVERY preformats the entire data set allowing load jobs to restart. VPE issues a message if the cluster was defined without SPEED.
