    You may or may not need partitioning.

    But you absolutely need to determine the proper clustered index for the table.

    I totally agree that a clustered index will help performance in our situation. But to convince the 'decision' makers, I have to know the effect in our sitiuation, hence my questions about partitioning.

    Thx,

    (The example comes from a table with 13 indexes. And startdttm is not the most used index. Using a clustered index on another field, might give similar results.).
