SORT MEMORY EXCEEDS 2GB

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
A Fast Integer Sort is a DB2 internal operation for sorting 
integer data. If sort heap memory in use for the fast integer 
sort operation exceeds 2GB then a trap (SEGV) in the fast 
integer

Exact details of traps may vary depending on the memory layout. 
An example stack trace might show the following functions: 
 
... 
<signal delivery>

sqlsSortInts 
sqlrifisBuffDoSort 
sqlrsopen
