Hello,
My SAS will always froze when the memory run out(over 53,756 k).I have to open task manager to kill the SAS console.all the work not saved will lose.
I want to know how to config to make memory size bigger for usage of SAS? or how to save the frozen SAS console?
Thanks!
Been awhile since I used DMS SAS with large data sets, but if I recall I works ok.
But of course, you should benefit from adjusting your memory settings either way.
MEMSIZE is the major one, you could set to a bit lower than your physical memory.
Also, SORTSIZE is by default very low, set that a bit lower than the MEMSIZE option.
