Read response time Transaction Log

  • Hi

    We have poor performance spikes on a drive containing our log file but this is only for reads and seems to be at a time when we run a re-index job. Can anyone tell me if this is a likely correlation as to poor performance in reading the log file, and what reads are done from a log file. Any links provided would be gratefully received.

    Thanks

  • During the time you are reindexing aren't you writing to the log file???

  • Transactional replication, change data capture, mirroring, availability groups, log backups, full/diff backups, transaction rollbacks all read from the log.

    Could be the writes to the log from the rebuild have a negative impact on read throughput
