Stored Procedures running slow on report server

  • We have two databases which have both a Live version and a Report version, the versions are on two separate servers and the stored procedures do not use linked servers.

    The stored procedures we have that use both databases are running fine on the live system however when we try to run them from the report system they take forever to complete. Both databases on the report server are restored copies of the live databases that are in Read Only mode and one database is updated every 15 minutes by log shipping.

    Does anyone know why we are experiencing such a drop in performance on the Report Server when in theory everything should be the same as the Live Server?

  • Sorted, it was the Parallelism setting on the report server which was set differently to the live server

  • Good to hear you have it all figured out. When operating with two different databases like that, another thing to keep an eye on is the statistics.
