Abstract: For set $Asubset{mathbb{F}_p}^{\ast }$ define by $mathsfsf(A)$ the size of the largest sum--free subset of $A.$ Alon and Kleitman showed that $mathsfsf(A)ge|A|/3+O(|A|/p).$ We prove that if $mathsfsf(A)-|A|/3$ is small then the set $A$ must be uniformly distributed on cosets of each large multiplicative subgroup. Our argument relies on irregularity of distribution of multiplicative subgroups on certain intervals in $mathbb{F}_p$.
