Problem Note 13076: PROC MEANS/SUMMARY/TABULATE/REPORT may generate incorrect results when threading is used with P2 quantiles
 |  |  |  |  |
PROC MEANS/SUMMARY/TABULATE/REPORT may generate incorrect results in SAS 9.1 and 9.1.2 when threading is used and quantile statistics are requested using the option, QMETHOD=P2. Data values stored by one thread may be overwritten by the workspace utilization code being executed by another thread. The current circumvention is to use the system option or procedure option, NOTHREADS. This problem is fixed in SAS 9.1.3.
