Great article! As a SAS administrator, not one I want all my programmers to find out about... That being said, the ability to take advantage of any extra room on a SAS server can be beneficial for programmers and developers if used wisely. Do you have a blog posting about the "Allow Parallel Execution on the Same Server" option in EG 5.1? (and later versions?) I have experimented with this a little bit, but I cannot find an experts take on what you can do with this and its limitations. (The biggest limitation I have found being separate-temporary work directories.) I feel like that option in EG is so close to what some of my EG programmers have been asking for.
