Problem Note 44585: Large DATA Step may go into infinite loop on AIX (64-bit) systems
 |  |  |  |  |
Large DATA Step programs might go into infinite loop running SAS 9.1.3 or SAS 9.2 on AIX (64-bit) systems. This is due to an internal branch and return problem within the code generator.
This problem can be avoided by breaking the DATA Step code up into smaller separate DATA Steps.
