hi,
i'm running a proc nlin on a large data set, it takes forever to complete.
it runs on a big unix server with 32gb memory.
on the unix performance monitor i see that it is using full i/o and almost no memory, only 27mb.
i would expect proc nlin to be memory intensive and use a lot of it when available. is this assumption correct?
are there suggestions for performance tuning?
proc options group=memory; run;
returns:
SORTSIZE=4294967296
Size parameter for sort
SUMSIZE=0 Upper limit for data-dependent memory usage during summarization
MAXMEMQUERY=6291456
Maximum amount of memory returned when inquiring as to available space
LOADMEMSIZE=0 Suggested memory limit for loaded SAS executables
MEMSIZE=8589934592
Specifies the limit on the total amount of memory to be used by the SAS System
REALMEMSIZE=17179869184
Limit on the total amount of real memory to be used by the SAS System
-Bart
never mind this, input data for proc nlin was a view that was taking a long time to resolve.
