I'm working on a heavily used Sybase database and beginning to encounter
out of space errors on the tempdb - due I believe to trying to sort a large
table. I've looked in the System Administrators guide and turned on all
the 'set' options but nothing tells me how much space a sort table is
taking in the tempdb. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks,
