| Managing Metadata Server Performance |
The SAS Metadata Server holds all queried and updated metadata
in memory. Therefore, to avoid excessive paging, the amount of RAM on the
server should exceed the amount of metadata.
To ensure that sufficient memory is available on Windows and UNIX systems,
set a MEMSIZE value in the start server command that allows the operating
system to set the memory limits on the server. This can be accomplished by
setting a value of 0 (zero), MIN, or MAX. For details, see Options for the Metadata Server Invocation Command.
