Performance Tuning

The process flow functionality enables SAS Studio to run multiple tasks simultaneously. If a new Java Virtual Machine cannot be started to run a task, you might see an error.
By default, SAS Studio can run a maximum of three parallel tasks in the process flow. Each task is run on a separate workspace server. You can specify the maximum number of workspace servers by using the maxParallelWorkspaces parameter in the config.properties file that is available from the SAS Studio WAR file. Valid values range from 0 to 8. A value of 0 disables parallel processing.
  • If you have enough RAM to support extra parallel processes, you can set this value to a higher number (up to 8).
  • If you have a limited amount of RAM, you should set this value to a lower number.
