I find that, despite some of the problems, I can get relative performance information faster and easier through the DMVs in many cases.Tue, 24 Aug 2010 10:54:45 GMTSQLRNNRhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic973772-263-1.aspxComments posted to this topic are about the item [B]<A HREF="/articles/Editorial/70990/">DMVs: are they worth the effort?</A>[/B]Mon, 23 Aug 2010 16:13:09 GMTTony Davis
