    Hi!

    I have multiple (individual) insert statement to insert around 2 million rows (using sqlcmd because the insert stament is around 8 thou lines).

    It took about an hr to insert when I tried it on my machine which is physical server with 4 GB RAM.

    When I try to run the same on my test server which is virtual machine it is still running,we have bumped up memory from 2 to 4 GB RAM.

    Any suggestions?

    Why is the insert statement around 8 thousand lines?

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
