  • RE: memory

    Wilfred van Dijk (5/27/2008)


    You need AWE to prevent memory stealing by the OS.

  • RE: Finding un-used indexes

    Here is a query you can use.

    Make sure your SQL instance has been up for at least 1 business cycle (week/month/longer???) before you start eliminating indexes! :w00t:

    SELECT

    OBJECT_NAME(...

  • RE: Database Tuning Advisor

    I would also add, be wary of indexes defined on too many keys (more than 3). These are usually overkill, unless you need a covering index.

    Also, as Gail mentioned,...
