This has resulted in a slight performance gain and I noticed that the activity on my processors is more evenly distributed and there is higher usage 50 - 60% processor usage.<BR /> <BR /> Regards<BR /> Metalib Mon, 12 Jul 2010 08:06:28 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/ActiveThreads/m-p/47293#M5291 MetaLib 2010-07-12T08:06:28Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/ActiveThreads/m-p/47294#M5292 I would probably check with Tech Support on this:<BR /> <BR /> <A href="http://support.sas.com/techsup/contact/" target="_blank">http://support.sas.com/techsup/contact/</A><BR /> <BR /> Free, unlimited tech support is provided with every SAS license.
