    Thanks for response guys !

    Some more clarification.

    Looks like it's a problem with this particular table.

    I did [SELECT TOP 30,000 * FROM ism_secmaster_price] which is located in the same database, it has 107,000 rows

    and it takes 5 seconds to get the results. Although that table has only 9 columns, three of them are float.

    [ism_secmaster_price] table has no PK, but has a clustered index.

    [SELECT TOP 30,000 * FROM equity_ids]

    takes 1 min 5 seconds.

    So the tables are inside the same database and act very differently.

    I suspect something is wrong with [equity_ids].

    How do I check table defragmentation?

    Here is a starter query

    SELECT *

    FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats(NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'limited')
