I don't understand most of your Order By clause. It looks like you're sorting on variables, but they shouldn't change throughout the query, so they shouldn't be in the...

If you just need that one column, that's fine.
If you need more columns, like if you uncomment some of your joins, you'll need to add more columns to the index.

Density is basically selectivity. High selectivity is good.
In Books Online, there's a good article on the subject:

No. Definitely not.
I'm suggesting that, if an appropriate column or set of columns exists, a clustered index could be created on those. That would probably be something that...

An index that covers the join columns (and any where columns) will definitely speed things up. Even better yet, if you have the disk space and time to do...

SAME is certainly very easy to implement.
I wouldn't use it, for the simple reason that having data and log files on the same array limits your recovery options in the...

You can put anything you'd put in a Where clause, into a join clause. Some things might be a bad idea, but you can technically do it.

From there, you can have it check your computer for needed updates and it will update the client tools if it needs to.
The service pack will probably work, too, but...

On very large databases, it can also have the advantage of doing smaller, file-by-file backups, instead of having to back up the whole database all at once.
But the main advantage...
