That's a very vague question. You need to give more details such as the utility you're using, type and attributes of the input and output data sets, functions being performed, etc.

If you're asking about a DFSORT job, you can find a general answer to the question in the Table at the link below under "Elapsed Time":

Suppose if we are using CONDCODE step which is taking more time, we can change it with SORT step which saves more time.But if a COBOL program is taking more time ,is there any possible way to reduce the time:?:
