The question I'd ask is not which is faster for the insert, but which supports the SELECT queries better. You're going to load once an hour/day/week/year and then in between...

Before we talk monitoring, let's validate your nightly process. You recreate your indexes and then update the stats? Is that right? If so, you might be hurting performance right there....

Honestly, I doubt there's a single right answer to this. I don't know of anyone who, as a matter of routine, sets their identity values to be DESC. But if...

What is this query plan operator?
