      We’re getting ready to add a Z-segment from an Epic source system.  Source and destination are both happy with unlimited field lengths.

      Any concerns about overhead or other processing issues within Cloverleaf when using a segment full of unlimited length fields that we should be aware of?

          Obviously if you get very large fields that will have  some impact.

          However, I don’t believe just specifying fields can be unlimited has any impact.
