Right. So.

You're very focused on that spill. You actually have a couple. However, they're not the core of the issue. There's a lot to unpack here. If i had to...

Here's a formatted copy of the query for anyone who wants to look:

SELECT [Roles].[Role_ID] AS "legalRoleID",
       [Roles].[UserID] AS MainUserID,
  ...

As I said, why not JOIN to the original table? Embedding it as a function doesn't make sense.

You're looking at two very different things. sql_batch_completed is for calls that come in as a batch command and have completed. rpc_starting is for calls that come in from a...

And to see what indexes are being used and how they're being used, you want to look at the Execution Plans. The book in my link is available in digital...

If you could zip the execution plan and post it instead of the picture, we might be able to help. All the good stuff on an execution plan is in...

Your function is a table, not a value. You're trying to compare a value, e.ID, to a table. You can't do that. You can join to your table instead, but...

The actual plan shows the number of threads used. Counting worker threads you're seeing other artifacts from other processes, including system processes. MAXDOP limits the number of concurrent processors used...

If you're running SQL Server 2017, Query Store is your bestest friend in the world. Enable Query Store, You'll be able to look at a given query and see how...
