So I've gotten more than a few complaints about posts like this from Syed Jahanzaib Bin hassan.

To post the plans you can save it as a .sqlplan file and then upload it.

If you're seeing differences, then these are different plans. Without seeing the plans, it's hard...

I posted a note about understanding your access patterns for data, meaning hitting tables...

Two, the old SQL Server software had a mechanism for generating scripts...

Hi

The Data base Schema will never decreases the Query Performance. If you are not mentioned the schema when you are executing the query check the execution time, and...
