Support for SAS DATA Step View Buffers
You can now specify the size of the buffer that is used for DATA step views. Speed up
execution time by setting the view buffer so that it can hold more generated observations
and require less task switching. See “VBUFSIZE=” on page 202.
Extended Attributes
You can create customized attributes for variables and data sets by using extended
attributes. Extended attributes are customized metadata for your SAS files. They are
user-defined characteristics that you associate with a SAS data set or variable. See
“Extended Attributes” on page 671.
