• yes that is correct; find the underlying tables of those views, and update stats on them;

    you could also use something like this to blindly update all stats for all tables as a shotgun approach:

    DECLARE @Exec VARCHAR(MAX)

    SELECT @Exec = ''

    SELECT @Exec = 'UPDATE STATISTICS ' + QUOTENAME(schema_name(schema_id))+ '.' + quotename(name) + ' WITH FULLSCAN ; ' + CHAR(13) + CHAR(10) + @Exec

    FROM sys.tables

    ORDER BY name DESC

    PRINT LEN(@Exec)

    PRINT @Exec

    EXEC(@Exec)
