PROC SYNCSORT is a high-performance replacement for the SAS-provided procedure PROC SORT. Compared to PROC SORT, PROC SYNCSORT reduces the resources required for sorting within SAS applications.
Sort processing within SAS often consumes as much as 30 percent of CPU time and EXCPs. Because sorting is such a large part of system activity, PROC SYNCSORT's efficiency results in noticeable improvements in overall system throughput. And the reduced elapsed time from PROC SYNCSORT means users see an immediate benefit: SAS applications complete faster.
Benchmark tests show dramatic performance advantages like those above for PROC SYNCSORT.
PROC SYNCSORT achieves such gains by providing a direct interface between SAS and SyncSort. This frees SyncSort to use the high-performance techniques—sophisticated access methods, path length minimization, I/O optimization—that have made SyncSort the most frequently used sort product.
PROC SYNCSORT is delivered on its own easily installed tape. No changes are required to existing programs that execute PROC SORT.
PROC SYNCSORT gives you the highest-performance sort processing under SAS. Put simply, PROC SYNCSORT lets SyncSort be SyncSort.
The bottom line benefit to you: significant improvement in system throughput and response time.
