    CXPacket waits are not an indication of poor performance. They're an indication that queries are running in parallel. That is all. If you have lots and lots and lots of CXPacket, then, to reduce them and improve performance, you need to look for the other waits. In any query that's got huge CXPacket waits, there will be one or more threads that have some other wait type. That's the wait type that you need to investigate and resolve.
