Subject:      Optimum Buffsize for AIX Server Using SAS v8.2
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi Everybody,

We are planning on moving to an AIX version 5.1 UNIX server.  Right now we
are doing some research as to the optimum buffsize for AIX v.5.1 when using
SAS version 8.2.  We plan on moving to SAS v.9.0 in the future on this same
AIX 5.1 platform.  As part of this research we would like to ask for
substantiated feedback on what the buffsize should be.  If any of you know
the optimum buffsize for an AIX version 5.1 server using SAS version 8.2 or
SAS version 9, please email us the buffsize and whatever documentation or
reasoning has led to this conclusion.

Thanks for your help.

Marie
