Problem Note 51300: PROC QLIM might return an insufficient memory error with BY-group processing
 |  |  |  |
The QLIM procedure might produce the following error if BY-group processing is performed over a large number of BY groups:
ERROR: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of insufficient memory.
The insufficient memory condition is caused by a memory leak in some of the underlying subroutines used by the procedure. To circumvent the problem, subset the data into smaller data sets and run the analysis in multiple steps.
