Migration Process Guide

Improving Performance 

OCT converts CM object code to the 900 Series instruction set for
increased performance.  The effort involved in using the OCT is
equivalent to recompiling, and, like recompiling, the application should
be retested to verify proper execution.  You can invoke the OCT through
the MPE/iX :OCTCOMP command.

OCT translates most CM instructions into HP-PA instructions and appends
them to the end of the destination file.  The resulting file can be
executed on either MPE V/E-based or MPE/iX-based systems.

By using the MPE/iX command :OCTCOMP, you can create a new file with
translated object code, translate only selected segments of the object
code, or add translated segments to another file.  Object code
translation will increase the size of the file.
