Large Data Sets
While there is no limit to the number of observations that can be
read from an input data set, the maximum number of Pareto
categories that can be read is 32,767.
This limit is a practical issue only if you are creating a restricted
Pareto chart from a large data set, since the number of categories
that can be displayed is limited by the resolution of your graphics
device. The number of categories that can be read is limited by the
amount of memory available, since the levels are stored in memory.
If you run out of memory, you should first reduce the data with the
FREQ procedure.
