After lots of testing I have found that re-using dialogs improves performance significantly, however I cannot fathom out what is the cost of re-using them. Performance does not come for free hene why I feel there is a cost. Can anyone shed any light on the cost of re-using dialogs? Also why should you re-cycle them? What benefits does recycling dialogs have?
Many thanks

I need to build TSQL query to return the Last unit Cost from my table of movement of goods SL (on CTE) but the MAX(Datalc) must be Less or Equal to my HeaderInvoice.
This is my script:
With MaxDates as (
SELECT ref,
MAX(epcpond)[Unitcostprice],
MAX(datalc) MaxDate
FROM sl
[code]....
the problem I have right now is that the Unitcostprice of my table of goods movements has a top date greather than the date of my bill.
Example:
invoice date : 29.01.2015 unitcost on invoice line = 13,599722
Maxdate (CTE) : 19.03.2015 unitCost from my table of movement of goods = 14,075
That ´s not correct because the MAxdates > invoice date and the unitCost of 14,075 is the cost on 19.03.2015 and not just before my invoice date.
I right in thinking that if the estimated subtree cost is higher than the cost threshold for parallelism then it will use a parallel plan? If so, I've read the cost threshold is measured in minutes but is the subtree cost measured in something else, the mysterious cost number? And if so, how are the two compared?

SInce day one i have configuring service broker to use transport and dialog security with certificates.
However i am not 100% sure how to setup service broker between 2 instances without security.
Would the following work, or what steps am i missing?
1.Setup the endpoint with WINDOWS authentication instaed fo certificates, the instances are in the same domain, grant necessary permission to the service account for each instance.
2.Create dialogs with the create remote service bindings with the anonymous = ON and grant send to public for the services.
Would this work? Also am i correct in thinking that if encryption is required the use of certificates is mandatory?
Thank YOu
I was looking at a means of reusing dialogs.
The attempt I tried was looking up an existing dialog in the conversation_endpoints.
However on doing a scale test I would that the non blocking I was hoping wasn't happening. Even through I was giving each spid a new dialog by using a conversation_group_id related to the spid. I found that the following SQL was blocked by a transaction that contains a begin dialog. This suggests the locking on conversation_endpoints is too excessive.
select top 1 conversation_handle
from sys.conversation_endpoints ce
join sys.services s on s.service_id = ce.service_id
join sys.service_contracts c on c.service_contract_id = ce.service_contract_id
where s.name = 'jobStats'
and ce.far_service = 'jobStats'
and (ce.far_broker_instance = @targetBroker OR @targetBroker = 'CURRENT DATABASE')
and ce.state IN ('SO','CO')
and ce.is_initiator = 1
and (ce.conversation_group_id = @conversation_group_id )--or @conversation_group_id is null)
and c.name = @contractName
We have an App server where Microsoft reporting services (report Builder 2005) is hosted and the backend Database server which is used by the reporting services.
The clients create very complex reports (usually towards month end) and run against the database causing the tempdb grow expenentially, leading to perfromance degradation and worst case space issues.Our only solution is to reboot the server.
There should be many systems which sould be having similar scenarios like mine. How to handle the scenario.usually in my database tempdb should be below 15GB... but it had grown to 60GB in some instances.
I wrote some code to insert some data into a table, if the record already exists overwrite, etc. I've never done something like this so
I am going to bang my head against that for a while. But when I did an execution plan I got
Index Seek Cost : 105 %
How do I get more than 100% and what does that mean?
Thanks,

hi there,
i have a site that has high traffic on it...and ofcourse there is search on the site...
one of the search options is to search by name, so i use a stored procedure as following :
select StID,StName from StudentTable where StName like '%' + @SearchField + '%'
ofcourse it works perfectly, the problem that it has a really high cost on the sql server..
so is there any way i can search for the name and using the '%' with lower cost, noting that the name is of type varchar(100)
Thanks in advance

OK, this should be an easy one but my brain isn't quite working right now.
I have a table, we'll call Table1 like so:
ProductID Supplier Cost
12345 A 14.50
12345 B 13.49
12345 C 12.00
43222 A 15.00
43222 B 15.21
43222 C 13.99
12312 B 14.00
15421 A 21.99
15421 C 20.00
And I want to Get the name of the Supplier with the Lowest cost,
I know I can go like:
SELECT ProductID, MIN(Cost) FROM Table1 GROUP BY ProductID
and get the lowest cost, but what would be the most effiecent way to get all three fields returned by the query? I need the ProductID, Supplier and Cost.
Thanks,

Hi,
Does anyone know how much storage space is required in SQL Server for a char(1) compared to a varchar(1)?

I've converted most SQL Server databases to unicode since the AS 400 stores data in unicode (UTF-16). So far the only difference I see is that running queries to text in Unicode takes a lot longer, and UTF-16 files are 4x as large as Cp1252 files.
Any way to get the file sizes / query times of old with Unicode?

has anybody investigated the cost of turning on AUDITING for the SQL servers? I am talking about enabling the entire C2 Security Audit mode. How much impact the auditing has on the database performance?
Is auditing for SQL 2005 any better, meaning less impact on performance?
Any sample, test, and/or numbers to support the arguments?
Please share any findings that you have or know. Thanks

im try to get the subtree cost (sql server 2000) back from a dynimic sql query that i build on the fly.. the sql query is:
SET SHOWPLAN_ALL ON GOselect * from mp_Contacts Where FirstName = 'Jason' --my queryGOSET SHOWPLAN_ALL OFF GOGO
the c# code is:
<code>
Decimal HoldSubTree;
// Make Connection
SqlConnection FindSubTree = new SqlConnection(Utilities.GetCRMEnvironment());
//Sql Connection
System.Text.StringBuilder SHOWPLANALLON = new System.Text.StringBuilder("SET SHOWPLAN_ALL ON");
System.Text.StringBuilder SHOWPLANALLOFF = new System.Text.StringBuilder("SET SHOWPLAN_ALL OFF");
System.Text.StringBuilder SubTreeSql = new System.Text.StringBuilder(MySqlString.ToString() + " ");
// Grab the data and fill the dataset
SqlCommand SubTreemyCommand = new SqlCommand(SHOWPLANALLON.ToString(), FindSubTree);
SubTreemyCommand.CommandTimeout = 90;
SubTreemyCommand = new SqlCommand(SubTreeSql.ToString(), FindSubTree);
SubTreemyCommand.CommandTimeout = 90;
SqlDataAdapter SubTreemyDA = new SqlDataAdapter();
SubTreemyDA.SelectCommand = SubTreemyCommand;
DataSet SubTreemyDS = new DataSet();
SubTreemyCommand = new SqlCommand(SHOWPLANALLOFF.ToString(), FindSubTree);
SubTreemyCommand.CommandTimeout = 90;
try
{
SubTreemyDA.Fill(SubTreemyDS);
</code>
and the result: it bring back the rows of data from the dynimic query instead of the subtree cost..
how could i send 3 statements to the sql database but all in the same transaction.. for example:
first the server would switch modes:
"SET SHOWPLAN_ALL ON"
then i would send it my query:
"select * from mp_Contacts Where FirstName = 'Jason' "
and then switch the server back over:
"SET SHOWPLAN_ALL OFF"
Is this possible?? ideas??
We use SQL Server 2005 and we use lots of stored procedures. Each time a stored procedure run we log the name, execution time and username so we can identify trends and long-running procedures.
I would like to add the actual CPU and IO cost of execution to this log. Is there a way to get it? This type of information is viewable in SQL Server's performance tools - so there must be some way to get it.
Can someone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks!
Hi,
We are in need of a JDBC driver (version 3) to support some autonumbering in SQLServer. We've found a couple, very expensive stuff (JTurbo & DataDirect), these drivers can be more expensive than a SQLServer license. Any other ideas/sources?

I have a query i have been optimizing. Now runs in about 15 minutes but was wondering if there is any way tr educe the SORT cost.
Currently the high costs left are the Table insert which is 58% and the Sort cost of 36%
The inner query below is around 400million rows and aggregates to around 15,000,000 rows)
SELECT@1 = DateKey FROM dbo.DimDate WHERE TheDate = CAST(DATEADD(WEEK, -1, GETDATE() -1) as DATE)
SELECT@2 = DateKey FROM dbo.DimDate WHERE TheDate = CAST(DATEADD(WEEK, -2, GETDATE() -1) as DATE)
SELECT@3 = DateKey FROM dbo.DimDate WHERE TheDate = CAST(DATEADD(WEEK, -3, GETDATE() -1) as DATE)

I have enabled the query governor on our SQL2000 SP2 server with athreshold of 3600.

Hi all
I have got 3 columns in my table- start date,finish date and cost..in the
following format...
start_date finish_date cost
12/12/2000 20/12/2000 $2000
01/09/2000 12/10/2000 $400
Now if the month and year of the start and finish date is same, the cost
remains same...
but if the month of the two dates are different, i have to distribute the
cost between the two months by calculating the cost for the number of days
for both of the months..
but i am not able to figure out how?
