  • RE: SQL Server 2008 R2 Memory Hog

    Min server memory is fine at 0. What's the exact value for max server memory?

    Run

    exec sp_configure 'show advanced', 1

    RECONFIGURE

    exec sp_configure 'max server memory'

    What's the exact output?

    What doesn't work?

    That's a derived table that Jessie posted, you'd put it in the join clause and join to it like a table.
