Problem Note 36111: Potential memory leak in SORT module causes Workspace server to fail
If a SAS® procedure that calls a multi-threaded sort is executed thousands of times
in a single Workspace server session, a segmentation violation error can occur and the
Workspace server will fail.
PROC SORT, PROC SQL, and PROC MEANS/SUMMARY are some of the procedures that may request
a multi-threaded sort.
