It probably is simply allowing two extra digits of precision (without changing scale) on the premise that the sum will be larger than any of the individual elements of the sum and, as a rule of thumb, allowing the sum to be about 100 times larger than any other element. (And that at the lower bound ...

Round Robin algorithm in Link Collector stage

Does anyone know for sure whether the Round Robin algorithm in the Link Collector stage is a "hungry" round robin or whether it waits if an input is not ready?

I'm sketching out a design waiting for DataStage to be installed, so can not test this.

That seems entirely reasonable.

You need a better strategy, perhaps dsrecords -n command, in your sequence to determine the number of rows.

They're pretty close to identical in terms of performance. What's different is the functionality - with the Remove Duplicates stage you can specify which record to keep from each group (first or last) whereas with a unique sort you cannot specify which record to keep from each group.

Probably because the command was typed in rather than using the expression builder and/or because parameters were included in the Command field (they may only appear in the Parameters field). These are my guesses. I don't know for certain what the OP did.
