The on-line help for the SET OUTPUT_RATE command describes it as:

      "Sets the rate at which output is written to a batch job log file."

However, it seems to do this for any process whose process-permanent
definitions of SYS$INPUT and SYS$OUTPUT refer to disk files, rather than
simply for batch jobs.  Thus it is applicable to processes started with
commands like:
	$ SPAWN/INPUT=procedure/OUTPUT=log[/NOWAIT]
or
	$ RUN/INPUT=procedure/OUTPUT=log[/DETACH] SYS$SYSTEM:LOGINOUT
