Low Performance When Using Parameterised Query
Jul 20, 2005
Hey...
Why do I sometimes experience low performance when I use a parameter instead
of an exact value?
For example the following performs very bad:
declare @TypeID integer
select @TypeID = 10
select ID from t_Table1 t1, t_Table2 t2 where
t_t1.ID = t_t2.FID and
t2.Type = @TypeID
but this query performs ok:
select ID from t_Table1 t1, t_Table2 t2 where
t_t1.ID = t_t2.FID and
t2.Type = 10

Dear ppl,
I am using Merge Replication between SQL Server 2005 (Publisher) and Pocket PC (Subscriber). I have a .NET compact framework appliction on the Pocket PC that replicates data from the server.
I am using SqlCeReplication class on the Pocket PC application to synchronise the data. By default, when i call the Syncrhonise() method, it pulls all the data from the server. What I want is to pass a parameter from the Pocket PC and filter the data based on that paramter. E.g. from the Employee table, I want only those Employee that belongs to a CompanyID that I pass as a parameter.
Is there a way to do this, so that i can pass parameters from my PDA application (Windows Mobile), and make the Filters specified in the Publication to use that parameter to filter out the rows.
Regards

Hello Everyone,I have a very complex performance issue with our production database.Here's the scenario. We have a production webserver server and adevelopment web server. Both are running SQL Server 2000.I encounted various performance issues with the production server with aparticular query. It would take approximately 22 seconds to return 100rows, thats about 0.22 seconds per row. Note: I ran the query in singleuser mode. So I tested the query on the Development server by taking abackup (.dmp) of the database and moving it onto the dev server. I ranthe same query and found that it ran in less than a second.I took a look at the query execution plan and I found that they we'rethe exact same in both cases.Then I took a look at the various index's, and again I found nodifferences in the table indices.If both databases are identical, I'm assumeing that the issue is relatedto some external hardware issue like: disk space, memory etc. Or couldit be OS software related issues, like service packs, SQL Serverconfiguations etc.Here's what I've done to rule out some obvious hardware issues on theprod server:1. Moved all extraneous files to a secondary harddrive to free up spaceon the primary harddrive. There is 55gb's of free space on the disk.2. Applied SQL Server SP4 service packs3. Defragmented the primary harddrive4. Applied all Windows Server 2003 updatesHere is the prod servers system specs:2x Intel Xeon 2.67GHZTotal Physical Memory 2GB, Available Physical Memory 815MBWindows Server 2003 SE /w SP1Here is the dev serers system specs:2x Intel Xeon 2.80GHz2GB DDR2-SDRAMWindows Server 2003 SE /w SP1I'm not sure what else to do, the query performance is an order ofmagnitude difference and I can't explain it. To me its is a hardware oroperating system related issue.Any Ideas would help me greatly!Thanks,Brian T*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

I'd really appreciate your help creating a parameterised view in SQLServer, which I can then invoke from VB5. I'm using DAO and ODBC toconnect to SQL Server 2000.I can open Tables and Views, but can't find how to create or use a"query" parameter. If I use the "?" (in the SQL Enterprise managerView design mode), the syntax checker verifies the query ok, but Ithen get the message "Parameters cannot be used in this query type".It doesn't like the %var% terminology at all here.I am sure I could build the full query in VB and save it to the Server"on-the-fly", but this partly defeats the object, doesn't it?I could really do with a couple of pointers: (a) how to define theview/query in Ent Manager and (b) how to invoke it from VB, supplyingthe parameter.Thanks ever so in anticipation.Phil

Hi,
I want a matrix report which displays Sales Data or Discount Data (Column) Vs Year (Row). I want to have a parameter which displays a text as 'Sales', 'Discount'.
When I Select 'Sales', the report should display 'Sales Amount' Vs 'Year' and when I select 'Discount', the report should display 'Discount Data' Vs Year. I am getting all the data from OLAP Cube.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,

I want to do an update query like the following:UPDATE tblUserDetails SET DeploymentNameID = 102 WHERE (EmployeeNumber = @selectedusersparam)Is there some simple way to add the @selectedusersparam as value1,value2,value3 etc. or do I have to input it with this type of syntax:UPDATE dbo_tblUserDetails SET dbo_tblUserDetails.DeploymentNameID = 102WHERE (((dbo_tblUserDetails.EmployeeNumber)=value1 Or (dbo_tblUserDetails.EmployeeNumber)=value2));Help appreciated.Many thanks.

Hi,
We have an issue with our replication configuration when viewed through replication monitor. Parameterised Filters and joined filters don't appear in the gui. However, when we script the publication all the filters are present.
This issue only seems to occur when we have a remote distributor.
I should also point out that we have a merge push topology that uses a custom RMO synchronisation component on a separate server to either the publisher or the distributor. Also all the databases in the topology are called the same name. This has caused us other issues relating to this topology in particular so I raise it here as well although I don't expect it to be the case in this instance.
Any help would be greatly appreciated in clarifying this matter.

I have an issue using parameterised reports connecting to Oracle using "ODBC" and "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" using parameteried reports. The following error is generated "ORA-01008 not all variables bound (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle)" and a similiar one for ODBC. It works fine for simple reports. Do these 2 drivers have issues passing parameters for a remote Oracle query?
Thanks.

Hi..
Is there any specific place where I can find which SQL Query is more efficient?.
Is INNER JOIN is faster or Select ... Where ID in (SELECT ...) is faster?
I have two tables:
1.FLEET (The number of rows is not so much)
Attributes :
Company_Id (PK)
Fleet_Id (PK)
Fleet_Name
Fleet_Description
2.USER_PRIVILEGE (The number of rows can reach up to 3 times the number of row in fleet table)
Attributes :
Company_Id (PK)
Fleet_Id (PK)
User_Id (PK)
Privilege_Id(PK)
Comment
Category
I want to select Fleet_Id and Fleet_Name from fleet table
Where the current user has privilege_id=1
I have two possible select statement :
1.Option 1
SELECT Fleet_Name, Fleet_Id
FROM FLEET
WHERE (Company_Id = 2) AND (Fleet_Id IN
(SELECT fleet_id
FROM user_privilege
WHERE user_id = 11 AND company_id = 2 AND privilege_id = 1))
ORDER BY Fleet_Name
2.Option 2
SELECT F.Fleet_Name, F.Fleet_Id
FROM USER_PRIVILEGE U INNER JOIN
FLEET F ON U.Fleet_Id = F.Fleet_Id
WHERE (F.Company_Id = 2) AND (U.Privilege_Id = 1) AND (U.User_Id = 11)
ORDER BY F.Fleet_Name
Actually which one is faster. Is SQL Statement with INNER JOIN (Option 2) can be executed faster than the one with double Select Statement(Option 1)?
Any suggestion is welcomed.
Thank you very much.

Hi:
I have the following query, can somebody help me?
SELECT s.Id, s.NameFROM Switch s INNER JOIN SwitchTelephoneRange r ON s.Id = r.IdWHERE '1526858' BETWEEN FromTelephone AND ToTelephone
Where the '1526858' is a phone number.
My problem is, I want to run the above query for each record in :
select Telephone from PhoneDirectory
So, each telephone number in the second phone, would macth the ' ' in the first query.
How can I do so? Do I need a loop? a cursor? Can you help please?

Hi there,
I'm having a big performance problems with sql query. What i have done is changes physical layout (rearanged the columns) in one of the tables in the database. I used bcp to get the data out and then in. There are about quarter million rows in the this table. I have created the same indexes but know the same query takes a long time to execute. I have noticed that the showplan is somehow different than it used to be. This query uses the table i have changed and another one that i haven't touched. I have updated the stats to no help.
Here are the show plans.
this one is slow
STEP 1
The type of query is INSERT
The update mode is direct
Worktable created for ORDER BY
FROM TABLE
SW_PERSON
Nested iteration
Index : swiPERSON10
FROM TABLE
SW_CASE
Nested iteration
Table Scan
TO TABLE
Worktable 1
STEP 2
The type of query is SELECT
This step involves sorting
FROM TABLE
Worktable 1
Using GETSORTED Table Scan
this one used to be fast
STEP 1
The type of query is INSERT
The update mode is direct
Worktable created for ORDER BY
FROM TABLE
SW_CASE
Nested iteration
Table Scan
FROM TABLE
SW_PERSON
Nested iteration
Index : PK_SW_PERSON_1__27
TO TABLE
Worktable 1
STEP 2
The type of query is SELECT
This step involves sorting
FROM TABLE
Worktable 1
Using GETSORTED Table Scan
I think the problem is with the fact that the fist one doesn't use the PK
key which is the one the links both tables. My question is how to force the query to use this index.
PS.
One thing i haven't done is to recreate indexes on the other table. But i don't think that would have made a differnece.
Thanks

I have the following functions in my database
Code:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnProductsRetrieveBySupplierID
(
@SupplierID int
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
SELECT *
FROM Products
WHERE SupplierID = @SupplierID
)
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnSuppliersRetrieveBySupplierID
(
@SupplierID int
)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
(
SELECT *
FROM Suppliers
WHERE SupplierID = @SupplierID
)
I have been testing the performance of the following SQL statements:
Code:
1.
SELECT *
FROM Products INNER JOIN
Suppliers ON (Products.SupplierID = Suppliers.SupplierID)
WHERE Products.SupplierID = 3
2.
SELECT *
FROM dbo.fnProductsRetrieveBySupplierID (3),
dbo.fnSuppliersRetrieveBySupplierID (3)
I have built a loop to execute each statement multiple times and then compare the execution times. Although both queries produce the same result, the 2nd one (which uses the functions) is about twice as slow, does anyone know why?
thanks

Hi All,
I am joining three tables each table has got about 1.5 million rows,selecting data from these three tables and inserting into a table,to avoid transaction log issues I am running the query in a batch of size 50,000 rows,it is taking about 5hrs to insert all the 1.5 millions rows.
All the columns in the where clause have proper indexes,I ran show plan for the query and it is using indexes properly and not doing any table scan.I updated the statistics for all the indexes also.
query looks some thing like this.
insert into table d (col1,col2,col3,.............. )
values (a.col1,b.col2,c.col3 .....................)
from a,b,c
where a.id = b.id
and a.id = c.id
and a.id in between @minid and @currid
The @minid starts from 1 and @currid starts from 50000 ,I am running this in a loop, in next iteration @minid will become 50001 and currid 100,000 and so on.
Any idea why it is taking that much time?.
Thanks in advance,
bsr.

I have two tables.
Employee
EmployeeCode int Primary Key
Employee_Stock
EmployeeCode int
StockCode varchar(10)
Primay key on (Employeecode, StockCode)..
There is no foreign key relation between these 2 tables.
Now my question is which query give more performance. and why?
1. Select * from
Employee INNER JOIN Employee_Stock on Employee.Employeecode = Employee_Stock.EmployeeCode
2. Create a foreign Key between Employee and Employee_Stock for EmployeeCode. and run the same query.
Actually we forgot to put the foreign key relationship between these 2 tables and we have lot of queries joining them..
Now if we add foreignkey, is it going to improve the performance or not?
Thanks

I wrote a query and I use cursor in the query. When I run the query on dev box it takes 3 mins.
I moved the query to EPM database box and it takes forever to run.
Usually EPM database query performance is much better. How do I start debugging the poor performance?
How can I check if the query is creating any table locks?
Purpose of query: I get all the Companies (20000) and loop thru each company in the cursor and do calculations.
Thanks...

Hello SQL Gurus,
From the query below, I am using 2 TOP functions to return the desired row. I am wondering if someone can shed some light on how to AVOID using 2 TOP statements and combine into just one select query?
select TOP 1 * from (select TOP 2 Num from A order by Num) X order by Num desc
Truly Appreciate your help as this performance issue has been bugging in my head for quite some time...
Sincerely,

Hi,
I am wondering if someone can clear my mind about a performance doubt.
What performs best using inner or left joins... I filter my data in the ON clauses or in the WHERE clauses...
Example 1:
FROM TABLE_A A INNER JOIN TABLE_B B ON A.ID = B.ID AND A.ID IN (@IDS)
Example 2:
FROM TABLE_A A INNER JOIN TABLE_B B ON A.ID = B.ID
WHERE A.ID IN (@IDS)
Consider that table A and B can contain large sets of data.
Best Regards,
Luis Simões

I usually am all over answering these kinds of questions, but while I continue to work on this issue, maybe someone here can lend me a hand. A vendor application we run, stores metadata about backup blobs stored on a NAS device. The app basically backs up select folders on 1400 remote computers in the back office of our stores, and stores this on a NAS, while maintaining metadata about the BLOBs in SQL Server so that they can push recovery of the data back to the original store it came from. The database is roughly 80GB in size and has a single file group and is on its own dedicated LUN. It uses TempDB heavily, and this is not something that I can change, but TempDB is on a different disk array.
Today I spent hours on a conference call with them looking at a specific stored procedure that is used to clean up the records in the database after a BLOB file is deleted. A single BLOB file can have millions of related records in the database. There is a LEFT JOIN in the code that is against a table with 150 million + rows of data in it. The table size is fairly small, only 5 GB of data, but the LEFT JOIN spools 2.4GB of data to a Hash Match. It seems to me like the left join can't be removed, but I don't get how all of this works, because I didn't write the application. It is an INDEX SCAN. I can't seem to eliminate it. Is there anything I can do to help this thing out?

I am attempting to get a better understanding of why my SQL 2005 setup when running a simple select statement on a large table is displaying very low IO in performance monitor. If i run a single Select * From testtable i see 4mbsec transfer and Disk readssec is around 8-9. This particular table is sitting on a single U320 10k drive so i expecting to see far more substantial IO. Does anyone have any information on how IO is consumed using different SQL operations so i can obtain a better understanding?

So I am experimenting with upgrading a Windows Mobile application from .NETCF 2.0 to .NETCF3.5, along with moving my SQL 2005 Compact to SQL Compact 3.5. I have a database that I upgraded using the recommended methods (creating a datasource in VS2008, opening the SQL 2005 Compact .sdf file and allowing the tool to upgrade to SQL Compact 3.5). On the device (Dell Axim x51), with the .SDF files on an SD Card, the query, when executed against the SQL 2005 Compact database file, takes 1.5 seconds, but takes 1min41sec to execute on the SQL Compact 3.5 database.
This is a fairly simple query, with an inner join (using about 4 inner join constraints), a where clause (over about 3 things), and an order by clause. The execution plan for the SQL Compact 3.5 query shows index seeks (one consuming 2% and the other consuming 0%, with the inner join using 98%). The database files are on the order of 90MB.
Can anyone offer any suggestion why the SQL Compact 3.5 query performance would be so much worse than the SQL 2005 Compact performance?
Thanks,
Matthew Belk

The below query seems to be very slow :
select distinct a.* from test a inner join test1 b on b.col1 = a.col1
inner join test2 c on c.col2 = a.col2 where exists (select NULL from
test3 d where (d.col3 = a.col3 or a.col3 is null))
All the columns involved in the WHERE clause and JOIN conditions have
index. Is there any alternative available for the above which can
increase the performance ?
Please advice,
Thanks,

Hello,
Here I have a small doubt about validating UserName and Password.I validate username and password with following quey (forget about case-sensitiveness of password) :select password from table where username='Uname' and password='pwd';Now in second scenario, I use following :select password from table where username='Uname'and validate password in .NET code.1) If user having 'Uname' does not exists in database then which query is faster (first or second)?2.1) If user exists and password is not matching then which is faster?2.2) 2.1 + If there is clustered index on username column, is first query optimized?

How could I tell the performance difference between two queries:
One is:
select * from table
where Lower(colomnname) = 'value'
The other is:
select * from table
where colomnname = 'value'
Basically the difference is in lower() function, how much this function will affect the query performance.
Is there a formal way to test it out, or by any logic.
Thanks, Mike

Hello,
I'm new to OLAP systems and MDX, and am doing some testing on Microsoft Analysis Service 2000 SP3, the database is Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP3. In the cube I designed, the fact table contains purcahse information including the cost and quantity of the parts and the suppliers of the parts. There are 2 measures, qtyAvailable and cost. Two dimensions are involved, which are part and supplier. Here is what I 'm going to do:
1. calculate sum(qtyAvailable * cost * 0.0001) for all the items in the fact table, let us call this value sum1
2. find out in the fact table all of those parts with their sum( qtyAvailable * cost ) greater than sum1
Here is the MDX to do the 2 things above:
with member [Measures].[prod1] as '[Measures].[qtyAvailable] * [Measures].[cost]'
with member [Measures].[prod2] as '[Measures].[prod1] * 0.0001'
with member [Measures].[sum1] as 'sum(crossjoin([part].members, [supplier].members), [measures].[prod2])'
with member [Measures].[sum2] as 'sum(crossjoin([part].currentmember, [supplier].members), [measures].[prod1])'
select {[Measures].[sum2]} on columns,
Filter({[part].members}, ([measures].[sum2]>[Measures].[sum1]) ) on rows
from cube1
It takes 9 seconds to calculate only sum1 by using another MDX. The value of sum1 is 8256865.23.
If I replace sum1 in the MDX provided above with 8256865.23, it takes several minutes to finish.
But it keeps running for hours if I run the MDX query above with [sum1] instead of 8256865.23. So the calculation of sum1 seems to be the bottle neck. In my MDXquery, it iterates thru the members of the dimension [part]. I don't know whether [sum1] is calculated repeatedly for each iteration or not. However, Sum1 will be constant during the running of the whole MDX query. So sum1 only needs to be calculated once. I tried to use cache to improve the performance but it didn't work.
Can anyone help to tell whether there is anyway to optimize this query?
Thanks so much
Roy

Hi,
Please let me know the way to increase the performance of the below query :
SELECT DISTINCT a.* FROM a INNER JOIN #temp1 b on (a.col1 = b.col1 OR a.col1 IS NULL) INNER JOIN #temp2 c on (a.col2 = c.col1 OR a.col2 IS NULL)
Here, there are no indexes/pk on the columns in any table. But I am sure that the table #temp1 and #temp2 has distinct/unique values in columns col1 used here. The table 'a' has redandant values in its column used here.
Should I create pk on the columns for #temp1 and #temp2 used here. Is that enough ? Or should I also create index on the columns of the table 'a' used here.
Also please let me know is there anyother way to increase the performance of the query.
Please advice,
MiraJ

Hi, I want to know if anyone have any clue about the reason why this happens.
I have a table on SQL Server 7 with 320 thousand registers and when I execute a SELECT * on it, it takes about 6 seconds to give an answer. But the same table on SQL Server 2005 Ent takes about 16 seconds, Is it normal?:shocked: :shocked:
