    I have a question regarding the splitting of TempDB in SQL Server, I know its a must in production environments as DBs Start growing and system becomes move complex.

    In terms of a System Test / UAT environments, Should the exact same process be followed to replicate what's in PROD or is there no benefit in terms of having 1 TempDB file In these environments?

    Assuming the answer would be what's in production should flow through all other environment, but is there anything debating against this?

    Multiple files in tempdb are implemented to overcome allocation contention within the database, the first question is, are you facing allocation contention, have you monitored for this?
