An "i" affair

We have an all IBM i affair this time round for April.
Our speaker line up:

Simon Hutchinson
Simon’s experience with IBM midrange started over 30 years ago in the United Kingdom, in a pre-AS/400 world. Since immigrating to the USA, in 1992, he has worked mostly in the South West of the USA, and is currently IT manager responsible for Power servers and IBM i for a large bank in Texas.
Simon has been writing his acclaimed IBM i blog, RPGPGM.COM, for nine years sharing his knowledge, experience, and giving many detailed examples of the latest RPG, SQL, and CL. He was recognized by IBM as an IBM Champion for Power in 2021 and 2022, and is an IBM i Community Advocate.

Simon will be covering the topic of:
Speeding Up Your RPG and SQL
Synopsis:
To get the most out of your SQL in RPG programs you have to change your mindset from RPG’s record at a time type processing to start gathering and processing sets of data, made up of many rows at a time. Learn how to fetch multiple rows of data, in one SQL statement. See how much faster it is to use this data that would be RPG native I/O. Be amazed by the speed of this approach, that can even be faster that using the CPYF command.
