Hi,

I'm running into memory problems. How do I increase the memsize at SAS startup?

Thanks,

jbear

Check the SAS companion for your OS.  It is specified there.

One way is on the SAS command: sas -memsize 2G will set the memory size to 2GB, or you could modify your SAS shortcut to do this.

Please bear in mind that changing the memsize option is not the only strategy for dealing with memory problems. If you want advice on other options, please provide more information on the cause of your memory problems.
