• Looking at this query, I wouldn't look at indexes with an improvement_measure of less than 1000. But that is nothing set in stone. It is a starting point.

    What you really need to do is have a feel for the data in your databases. You need to know and understand the data, how the app & reports interact with that data and then tune that.
