• you could also try to fetch SQLPlan data out of your sql engine, or post the estimated execution plan.

    Using SqlServer Management Studio, you could highlight the actual code withing the sproc and then, using the menu, go for Query \ display estimated execution plan.

    It will produce a graphical execution plan. Right click on it and you'll be able to save it to a file and attach it to your reply.

    or you could use my powershell script to extract the sqlplan from the current cache and capture some execution statistics with it.

    You can find the PoSh script at http://poshcode.org/3730

    Just add an extra filter to the query

    and p.name = ''yoursprocname''
