As a still newbie to the HP 300, I have a little question.

Let's say I'm going to create a KSAM file of about 160 bytes with about 1,000,000 records.  Is there some preferred way to populate this?  On some systems I've worked on, one could improve processing speed by closing the file, WAITing about 10 seconds and then re-OPENing the file after about 100,000 sectors of data were written.  Is there any similar lore for the HP 3000?
