I understand how to use and how to read the additional options that fullstimer prints to the log but I do not know what to do with the information. Can anyone give me a practical example of what I would do with the additional information provided?
Thank You,
Mark

On page 5 it has a section titled "FULLSTIMER Statistics Definition and Interpretation".
Hope this helps,

The practical example is dependent of seeing more ways solving a problem or having options available for tuning.
Only seeing it as informational for a single appraoch of some problem is the limited view.

Mark,
In addition to the great advice you got from Japp and Ahmed, check out my oldie-but-goodie paper:
It provides a lot of information on what you can do with the metrics surfaced via FULLSTIMER.
Best of luck in all your SAS endeavors!
