Optimization of a sort job to reduce CPU time

I have a sort job that takes in around 50 million records sorts it on some fields and writes the output. I have to optimize the job so that i can reduce the CPU time. Is there any ways to do this?

Thanks

Why don't you start by reviewing the details of this previous topic.

Hello,

Also, please keep in mind that sorting 50mil records will take some amount of cpu time. . .

If you post your jcl and control statement(s) as well as the dcb information about the input/output, someone here may have suggestions.
