Hi Gail and Paul,

I've read several articles like this one, and they are frequently followed by posts saying that this metric or another is

a) Pointless

b) Out of date

c) Just SQL folklore based on something Paul once said 😉

d) All of the above

Are there any metrics that can be trusted in Perfmon for diagnosing system performance problems? Do either of you know of, or have you written similar articles that are available online?

Thanks,

Chris
