Yeah, Curtis, that was PC, I didn't try Unix or MVS.
Thanks for the tip.

I believe those are MVS options, not Windows options. Are you using them
under MVS? I'll be real disappointed if they no longer work under MVS (I
expect v8 MVS to be installed in a couple months).
Glad to see you are using Michael's book. I found the section on optimizing
blocksizes and buffers to be a great help.

Hi Paula,
Am I doing something wrong? I'm using 8.2 and all three fail.

Subject: For Paul: Real & CPU Time
Paul, I just started reading "Tuning SAS Applications in the MVS
Environment" by Michael A. Raithel and found the code below helpful for
determining CPU. His book indicates "elapsed time" is the actual "wall
clock" time it takes to complete a program, task or job. It also says that
elapsed time is referred to as "response time" in interactive applications
and "turnaround time" in batch applications. This book is written for the
non-programmer (me) to understand.
The first chapter covers performance, efficiency and tuning. I'm actually
going to try his suggestion of taking a baseline measurement and a
modification measurement after changes in my programming to see if I can
improve the CPU time and the EXCP count time.
If you want to track CPU within your job, type the following in your SAS
program:
OPTIONS MEMRPT STATS FULLSTATS;
You'll get the following output after each PROC and DATA step:
The PROCEDURE FREQ used the following resources:
CPU time - 00:00:00.02
Elapsed time - 00:00:00.08
Vector affinity time - 00:00:00.00
Vector usage time - 00:00:00.00
RSM Hiperspace time - 00:00:00.00
EXCP count - 23
Task memory - 3471K (119K data, 3352K program)
Total memory - 8509K (2592K data, 5917K program)
Hi SAS-L,
I have to check for various testing purposes how long a batch program takes
to run on V6.12 v V8. Now on version 8 it CPU and Real time appear
automatically but with v 6.12 they don't. Are there options i need to set?
I
have tried stimer and fullstimer but they don't give overall cpu and real
time.
Thanks in advance,
Paul.
