    Not sure what I can suggest here, you are rebuilding the index. I could suggest that you use the

    ALTER INDEX

    instead of DBCC DBREINDEX

    if your tempdb database is on a different set of disks to the user database, you could use the

    SORT_IN_TEMPDB option

    which will reduce the time the index takes to get rebuilt but it will increase the amount of disk space that is used.

    another thing to bear in mind is

    The rebuild operation can be minimally logged if the database recovery model is set to either bulk-logged or simple

  • Don't rebuild indexes that don't need rebuilding. There are lots of custom index rebuild scripts available. There's one I quite like here - http://www.sqlfool.com
