Mar 20, 2007
I need help makeing the following query run more efficently.
Code:

FROM Landlord_tbl t1
left outer join Mail_tbl t2
ON t2.potentialSitesID = t1.potentialSitesID
WHERE t2.mailed_out_date is null and NOT(t1.firstName+t1.lastName) is Null

It seems when I run the query with the set staticts IO on then statistic reports back with the 'work table', and the query takes 30+ sec. if the worktable is ommited(whatever the reason?) the query take less 1 sec.
Here is my take, I believe work table is created in tempdb...and if not then whole query is using the cached page, am I right?
if I am right then the theory is, if I increase the (via sp_configure) server min memory setting and min query memory, the query ought use the cached page and return in less 1 sec. (specially there is absolutely no one but me on the server), so far I can't make it go faster...what setting am I missing to make it run faster?
Another question is if the query can not avoid but use the tempdb, is it going to always be 30 sec+ time? why is tempdb involvement make it go so much slower?
Thanks in for you help in advance

I recently installed SQL2005 Express on a Dell Precision workstation to be accessed by 6 users. The PC has XP Pro, 2GB memory, and 2.0GHz core2due CPU. This PC is dedicated for the database only.
I also set XP Performance options in System Properties to Background services and System cache.
Now, the users are experiencing slow response from the database.
How can I make the database response faster?
Thanks for your input.

Hi:
I have thousands of rows that I have to retrieve for my report. When I run my main report it returns my data as a reasonable time.
When I run my sub report (by its own) again data are returned in reasonable time.
When I build the sub report in my main report it takes forever (I have to stop). Are there any tricks that I can use to make this run faster?
Thank you in advance

Hi,
Here is the typical processing I do in Data Flow
1) read data file (data source)
2) do something with the data (e.g. derived column, script component, etc)
3) pass data as parameters into OLE DB command (stored proc) to take care of the rest.
Would it be faster if
I split the data into say 10 "chunks" (using split transform). Each chunk will go to its own OLE DB command (10 OLE DB command). Now I will have 10 concurrent processes running the stored proc ?
Am i misunderstanding concurrent process here ?
Thanks

Anyone got any alternatives to the SQL Statement below that would make it run a bit faster:
ALTER PROCEDURE sproc_ReturnAvailability
@ExtractDate DateTime,
@DateFrom DateTime,
@DateTo DateTime,
@96hrPlusFlag int,
@AppointmentsCount int OUTPUT
AS
IF @96hrPlusFlag = 0
BEGIN
SELECT @AppointmentsCount = COUNT(tbl_SurgerySlot.SurgerySlotKey)
FROM tbl_SurgerySlot
INNER JOIN tbl_SurgerySlotDescription ON (tbl_SurgerySlot.Label = tbl_SurgerySlotDescription.Label AND tbl_SurgerySlot.PracticeCode = tbl_SurgerySlotDescription.PracticeCode)
AND tbl_SurgerySlot.ExtractDate = @ExtractDate
AND tbl_SurgerySlot.StartTime BETWEEN @DateFrom AND @DateTo
AND tbl_SurgerySlotDescription.NormalBookable = 1
AND tbl_SurgerySlot.SurgerySlotKey NOT IN(
SELECT tbl_Appointment.SurgerySlotKey
FROM tbl_Appointment
WHERE tbl_Appointment.ExtractDate = @ExtractDate
AND tbl_Appointment.Deleted = 0
AND tbl_Appointment.Cancelled = 0
)
END
ELSE
BEGIN
IF @96hrPlusFlag = 1
SELECT @AppointmentsCount = COUNT(tbl_SurgerySlot.SurgerySlotKey)
FROM tbl_SurgerySlot
INNER JOIN tbl_SurgerySlotDescription ON (tbl_SurgerySlot.Label = tbl_SurgerySlotDescription.Label AND tbl_SurgerySlot.PracticeCode = tbl_SurgerySlotDescription.PracticeCode)
AND tbl_SurgerySlot.ExtractDate = @ExtractDate
AND tbl_SurgerySlot.StartTime >@DateTo
AND tbl_SurgerySlotDescription.NormalBookable = 1
AND tbl_SurgerySlot.SurgerySlotKey NOT IN(
SELECT tbl_Appointment.SurgerySlotKey
FROM tbl_Appointment
WHERE tbl_Appointment.ExtractDate = @ExtractDate
AND tbl_Appointment.Deleted = 0
AND tbl_Appointment.Cancelled = 0
)
END

Any ideas how to make reports faster when returning lots fo rows?
I know you would need to work on your sql query etc..
Or maybe cache it.
But i'm thinking of having a kind of middle tier thing that sits between your sql database and the reports itself.
Any ideas would be appreciated

Dear VB coders!
I have 8.000 or 16.000 products on my list in an sql table. It takes 8 or 16 secs to find the last item.
How could I make the search faster? Indexing? But how?
I created:
createTable1.CommandText = "Create TABLE products (ID int IDENTITY(0,1) PRIMARY KEY, name ntext)"
and I use simple WHERE to search.
Thank you!

Hi y'all,
I've recently run a profiler on my code and following query took 7 seconds:
SELECT TOP 10 UI, COUNT(UI) AS Expr1 FROM table WHERE (UI <> 'custom_welcome') GROUP BY UI ORDER BY COUNT(UI) DESC
Is it possible to rewrite this so my code gets faster? It's also possible that it's due to the size of the table?
Thanks in advance! I'll let you know how long your query takes :)

Hi!
I M basically an application developer & use simple sql queries in my programmings. I do not have much idea abt tuning/auditing part & thatswhy i m unable to answer them properly in my interviews. Can anybody give me some tips?????
Question 1:
In a stored procedure, One SELECT stmt is there & depending upon the @rowcount, it updates around 14000 records which is also written inside this stored procedure. Instead of writing this way, there is some other way which is faster than this. Can anybody tell me the correct way???
Question 2:Can anybody give me few examples like this?????? I need them desparetly.

I have rewritten a stored procedure that consists of a single select that selects from a view. Essentially I combined the select in the view and the select in the sp into one select. I am now trying to determine if the new version is faster.
The estimated execution plan gives a ratio of 96% : 4% in favour of the new version when I run them together from a query window but when I try to time them I can't get a satisfactory result.
If I run each query once and display the difference between start and end time, they display 0. If I run each one 100, 200, etc times I get different results each time.
Is there anything I can do?

Can anyone give me the basics of speeding up reports that use queries or views or nested views?
Current reports are now taking over 2 minutes to show.We have thousands and sometimes even millions of records to report against.Queries have 4 and 5 table joins etc.
We are using ASP.NET 2.0 in Visual Studio 2005 and Crystal Reports.

I have a query which joins multiple tables. This query has suddenly begun to take up to 2 minutes to run (vs. 5-10 seconds previously).
No major change in number of records in the tables (currently about 220,000). When I remove the PK from one of the tables which then forces a tablescan, the query returns to running in 5-10 seconds. If I add the PK back, performance is back to 2 minutes.
Any suggestions short and/or long term?
Thanks for any help.

Yesterday i face a strange SQL Server 2000 behaviour :-(
I had a query that was wrapped inside a stored procedure, as usual.
Suddenly, the stored procedure execution time raised from 9 secs to 80.
So to understand where the problem was i cut and pasted the sp body's into a new query analyzer window an then executed it again. Speed back to 9 secs.
Tried stored procedure again, and speed again set to 80 secs.
Tried to recompile sp. Nothing. Tried to restart SQL Server. Nothing. Tried to DROP & RE-CREATE sp. Done! Speed again at 9 secs.
My collegue asked me "why?", but i had no words. :confused: Do you have any explanation?

Let's say I have a table of users.
Let's imagine there's two fields:
username (PK),
password
Now I need to authenticate a user against this table. What is the recommended approach? Is it better / faster to
(1) SELECT * FROM [User]
WHERE username = 'whatever' AND password='whatever'
or
(2) SELECT * FROM [User]
WHERE username = 'whatever'
and then in my code check that the record returned matched the password?

Hi,
I apologize for the long post but I am trying to give as much information as I can about the steps I've taken to troubleshoot this.
We have a stored procedure that builds a sql statement and executes it using the Execute command. When I execute the stored procedure through query analyzer it takes close to 5 seconds to execute. When I print out the exact same statement and execute it directly in query analyzer as "raw sql", it takes 0.5 seconds - meaning it takes 10 times longer for the code to execute in the stored proc. I altered the stored proc to execute the printed sql instead of building but it still takes the full 5 seconds and there were no changes in the execution plan. This makes me confident that the issue is not caused by the dynamic sql. I've used with recompile to make sure that the stored procedure caches the most recent execution plan. When I compare the execution plans, the stored proc uses a nested loop whereas the raw sql statement uses a hash join. Seeing that, I added the hash hint to the stored proc and doing so brought down the execution time down from 5 secs to 2 secs but still the raw sql statement uses a clustered index whereas the stored proc uses a non-clustered index and that makes the statement 4 times slower. This proves how efficient clustered indexes are over non-clustered ones, but it doesn't help me since, as far as I know, I can't force SQL Server to use the clustered index.
Does anyone know why sql server is generating such an inefficient execution plan for the stored proc compared to the execution plan that it generates when executing the raw sql statement? The only thing I can think of is that some stats are not updated and that somehow throws off the stored proc. But then again, shouldn't it affect the raw sql statement?
Thank you,
Michael Tzoanos

Hello,everyone!!
There is a query which when executed in the grid mode(ctrl+d) takes approx 0.02 seconds(about 21,000
rows) But when I execute in the text mode, it takes about 0.40 seconds!!
Why is this difference?
Also, when the records from this table are read from a VB application, they are equally slow (as in the text mode!)
Why is it so slow on the text mode & relatively faster in the grid mode?
Has anyone got any idea on ‘Firehose’ style cursor ?(which may speed up access of data in the VB application)
Rgds,
Adie

Hi guys, I have a car_race table which has these fields
car_id int
race_id int
b_car_won varchar // can have 'y' or 'n'
I need to know if the car lost the 1st race but won the next race
And example of that table for car_id 1:
car_id 1
race_id 1
b_car_won 'NO'
car_id 1
race_id 2
b_car_won 'YES'
Now this is the tricky part, the database has some data integrity issues, so this can occur:
car_id 1
race_id 1
b_car_won 'NO'
car_id 1
race_id 3
b_car_won 'YES'
So I cant used a fixed race_id value, need to use the race_id > 1 to know whats the next race. But this raises another issue if I have this in the database:
car_id 1
race_id 1
b_car_won 'NO'
car_id 1
race_id 3
b_car_won 'YES'
car_id 1
race_id 4
b_car_won 'YES'
If I query I'd get 2 rows where race_id > 1. And I only need the first one, because 3 is the next race.
I need to fetch in a single row if possible, the result of the 1st race and the 2nd race. How can I do this?

Hi all. I have tried making this query for a while and i didn't manage to.
I know it is something related to JOIN, but i didn't manage to make it work :
I have two tables.
Table1- db_stockprices
Table2- db_stockSymbols
db_stockprices is getting updated every day with stock daily prices.
db_stockprices looks like:
ID, SymbolID, Price,Date
1 1 33.21 1/1/2007
2 1 33.14 1/2/2007
3 1 34.21 1/3/2007
4 2 11.42 1/1/2007
5 2 11.73 1/2/2007
6 3 18.32 1/1/2007
7 3 19.11 1/2/2007
8 3 18.41 1/3/2007
9 4 52.44 1/1/2007
and so on for all the stocks.
ID is Primary Key
SymbolID is related to SymbolID in db_stockSymbols which contains all the stock information.
What i am trying to do is an SQL QUERY that will delete all same SymbolID Rows if a specific INPUT date do not exist within that SymbolID.
Example:
If the INPUT date for the query is 1/3/2007 all rows with SymbolID "2" abd "4" will be deleted since 1/3/2007 does not exist in SymbolID "2" and "4". Moreover, the row in db_stockSymbols with SymbolID "2" and "4" will also be deleted.
Is this possible within 1 SQL Query?
I would really appreciate a good query example for this example..

Hi,
I got a problem.
I installed Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005 version.
And I created a Compact database.
I created an connection in SSMSE to connect the database and opened a query form.
then, i run the following sql:
Select * from Table1
It returned 3 records to me.
After that, I used program to insert record into this table.
Then i ran this sql again, it still show me 3 records.
I closed the query form, and re-created a new query form, then run the sql, it returned 4 records to me.
Why? It's very strange and difficult to operate, right?
Is there anyone know how to make the SSMSE to return whole records without any close query form and re-create query form operation?
Thanks a lot!
And Merry X'max!!!

Hi,
I have a query thatI need to make into one query for the sake of an application reading only one cursor.
Here's the syntax:
select (select distinct(x.amount) from escrow k inner join e120 x on k.escrow = x.escrowinner join a10 g on x.escrow = g.escrow where k.ftype = 'S' group by x.amount, g.officer) As New,a.officer as Officer, count(distinct(j.fstatus))as Escrow_Type, count(distinct(j.amount))as Amount, count(distinct(d.open_date))as [Open], count(distinct(d.close_date)) as Closed, count(distinct(can_date))as Cancelled
from a10 a inner join escrow d on a.escrow = d.escrowinner join e120 j on j.escrow = d.escrow where j.id_scr = 'e21' and j.fstatus = 'PAID' group by a.officer
The error message i'm recieving is the following:
Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.
Any ideas? any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
