    Best case for physical disk drives: 100-150 IOPS per drive.

  • RE: DMV equivalents of Windows Performance Counter

  • RE: Why is it that opening .sql files in a project requires signing in each time?

    Are you running the RTM version of SSMS 2005? That was the case with the original version, to present 'look, we're more secure this way', but after everyone howled about...

  • RE: IO_STALL Metric???

    What's also important is to not look at this DMF for the whole time the server has been up - idle periods flatten the spikes out. For this data to...

  • RE: IO_STALL Metric???

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    While I'm all for having new speakers the Summit isn't the place for real newbies. That's what all the Chapters (real & virtual), SQLSaturday's, SQLRally's, and various online sessions...

  • RE: Waits issues

    Did anybody look at the pictures before responding?

    Looks like you're rebuilding an index, or performing other index-modification work. You'll get lots of page latching on metadata pages (mostly the GAM)...

  • RE: Dynamic SQL and IN Operator

    Since you're already passing in a string list of values, and adding them to a dynamic (string) command, why bother splitting them?

    PolyServe has reached end-of-life. It beat our experiences with Windows 2003 clustering (such failovers not working or taking too long), but Windows 2008 clustering is an entirely different animal, and...
