DB2 - Problem description

Problem IT06540 Status: Closed

EXCESSIVE OVERHEAD IN SHARED SORT MEMORY, DATABASE MEMORY WHEN EXECUTING
QUERIES ON COLUMN_BASED DATA

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A50 - DB2
Problem description:
Excessive memory overhead may occur withing shared sort memory 
when executing queries on column-based data, leading to various 
symptoms associated with high memory usage - SQL0955, paging, 
out of memory errors. 
 
In order to identify that this APAR is a match for a given 
problem, confirm that the physical size of the sort memory 
subpool is both large enough to be impacting the system AND 
significantly exceeds the logical size (say by more than 10%). 
 
For example : 
db2pd -alldbs -mempools 
 
Memory Pools: 
MemSet PoolName LogSz      PhySz       CfgSize
