Hello All,

Unless I'm misreading the manual, from the DFSORT Application Programming 
Guide, FILSZ can be used to improve performance.

We run sort splits on large tape datasets, with over a hundred million records. 
They get split into 3 separate datasets, depending on the data.
These jobs do not use FILSZ.

Some of our other SORTs do use FILSZ, always FILSZ=Ennnnn.

Since we have an approximate idea of how many records the datasets have, would 
it be worth our while to use FILSZ ? We are not specifying SORTWK datasets.


        Regards,
                Eric Verwijs
