The data size was 360 GB (336m records). Can you please share the formula you've used to determine the optimum amount is around 200MB? The DFSORT Tuning Guide (1.12) seems to think 2GB is the upper limit when it comes to recommending minimum virtual storage settings :) Thanks, Yifat Oren ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
