Under normal conditions, the database manager will allocate sort heap using the value specified by the sortheap configuration parameter. If the amount of memory allocated to sort heaps exceeds the sort heap threshold (sheapthres configuration parameter), the database manager will allocate sort heap using a value less than that specified by the sortheap configuration parameter.
