Buffer size in KB.
Default setting 500  
Dynamic specification yes

Notes:

  1. This sort buffer is only allocated when executing a Natural program which contains a SORT statement.
  2. Increasing the buffer size setting leads to faster SORT processing, in particular when all data to be sorted fit into the sort buffer.
