    This result should tell you:

    Query Rows Time of execution

    w/o compressionwith compressionwith Columnar Indexes select * from warehouse.[dbo].[Timekeeper_Matter_Time_Summary_Period] 1,102,894 69 371

    select * from warehouse.[dbo].Matter_Timekeeper_History 2,796,014 78 7878

    basically the query runs approximately 5.5 times longer with columnar index in one table and no improvement in the second one.

    anybody have any clues as to where I should look?

    Quick thought, have you compared this using aggregation? You should look into the intended use of this feature.
