KOH and NaOH in DMSO

Which is more soluble in DMSO, KOH or NaOH? Approximately how much is soluble by weight?

Is there anything else in particular one should know about using metal hydroxides in DMSO, like unusual exothermic heat of dissolution, etc. ?

Fermium.

From DMSO : Some Uses there is a link in that thread to Gaylord Chemicals website, follow that link and go to bulletin 105, this is one of the best free references I've found on DMSO, there is a whole section listing solubilities of various substances in DMSO. I never noticed anything unusual solvating hydroxides in DMSO before.

Probably worth mentioning as a general warning that substances dissolved in DMSO gain an intercity express ticket to your blood stream if you spill any on you.
