what are the limitations of Inline Perform?

Answer / anbarasu
Inline perform needs to be ended with end-perform everytime.
We need to hard code the statements that we need to perform
with a inline perform statement.
In line PERFORMs work as long as there are no internal GO
TOs, not even to an exit.
The in line PERFORM for readability should not exceed a
page length - often it will reference other PERFORM
paragraphs.
