    First off, if it is a reporting only system that gets a refresh at night or something, make it read only. That will radically improve your performance for the queries.

    As...

  • RE: full backup failed

    Are you using a custom script or is that a 3rd party backup routine?

    Another thing that comes up are locked files on the server. These can be caused when a...

  • RE: Defined SQL Server functions seem to hang

    Functions are a notorious TSQL bottleneck. Most of the time they are used incorrectly or written badly and the combination causes poor performance. This is especially true if you're working...

  • RE: Fake SQL Server Statistics

    Had to laugh when Grant mentioned DBCC TimeWarp in a presentation. 😀

  • RE: Question about backup/monitoring strategy

  • RE: Best Practice - When to Grow DB File?

  • RE: Index Maintenance

    Pretty much use Michelle's scripts. They're solid as can be. We had reasonably wide maintenance windows and the databases weren't terribly large (100gb each) so we did full maintenance of...
