Diff between Routine and Transform is, transform code will be included during the time of job compilation. Where as Routine will be called each time. Hence the startup time for the job using Routine may be more when compared to Transform.

Also, if the definition of a Transform changes, every job that uses it has to be re-compiled, whereas if the logic of a Routine changes, only the routine itself has to be re-compiled (unless the number of arguments changes).

Since the code of the Transform is included during compilation, any change to Transform after that will not affect the current job settings. Unless job is recompiled, which will again look for the latest available code of Transform.
