Hi everyone,
One of my team discovered this today.
We have some code that ends up creating a scatter plot of a large amount of data (don't ask why!) which worked fine on EG 7.15 but causes EG 8.1 to hang, chew up loads of RAM on the desktop and can only stop by crashing out.
Some example code is below. Running for i = 1 to 1000 will work fine but if we go up to 20,000 records EG get's itself stuck.
(our dataset has 24,000 records and plots fine on EG 7.15)
Has anyone else come across this issue or are you able to replicate it? Not sure if it's a problem with our environment or something else?
Using proc gplot through the EG tasks did produce the chart on EG 8.1 so it might just be an SGPLOT issue but i'd rather not go through updating all our code to use different procedures.
Thanks for your help,
Tim
