STATS | NOSTATS

STATS
specifies that SAS collect and display all of the performance statistics controlled by the FULLSTIMER system option unless the STIMER system option is specified without FULLSTIMER.

NOSTATS
specifies that no performance statistics are to be collected or displayed.

Details

Specifying STATS activates the FULLSTIMER unless STIMER is in effect. NOSTATS deactivates FULLSTIMER and/or STIMER.

Note:    Collecting and displaying performance statistics is resource-intensive. Use the STATS option only when tuning your SAS programs.  [cautend]
