[Info-vax] Ignorance promenade: On the nature of patching VMS

[JF Mezei]

>From a VMS engineering point of view, did it save engineers much time to
produce recompiled images versus generating patch files ?

For me, it would be a no brainer that recompiling would be much faster.
For for the likes of Hoff who could type in VAX object code in a text
editor as fast as he could type C code, did it make a big difference ?
