Query Analyzer Very Slow For Even Trivial Queries
Oct 12, 2005
I've been using MS-SQL Server for many years but never come across this problem before.
When I try and run a very simple query from Query Analyzer it takes a LONG time. Even when there are no tables involved!
Even:-
select 1
go
takes 28 seconds to return '1' when running against the local server. i.e. both QA and the Server are running on the same machine.
Can anyone help explain how to get my performance back! Thanks.

My sql query analyzer my windows xp machine is very slow. I run a query in my collegues computer, it takes about 2 mins to finish. This might means the sql server has no problems. On my computer, the same query took about 3 hours to finish.
Can someone give me some suggestion how to fix this problem.

Hi all,I'm a newbie to SQL and I need help with investigating what ways arepossible to build an interface of some sort that wraps around a SQLquery script.I have a simple SQL query which we normally run inside Query Analyzerto update certain fields in the SQL DB based on FQDN provide by theuser. The user normally opens up the query, edit the script to replaythe xxxxx in the line "set @FQDN="xxxxx" with the node name and thenfires it off.I would like to know what are the ways to wrap a simple user interfacearound it so the user does not have to open and edit the scriptdirectly. A simple GUI or Excel type form interface that has a freeform text field for input and then a button to run the script.Obviously, I would like to see the output in some sort of output paneas well.Is this something that can be done in Query Analyzer ?Thanks in advance,Michael.

Hi,
I have a report in SQL Reporting Services 2005 which calls a stored proc and the report takes a very long time to run and sometimes returns zero records. But when i run the stored proc in query analyzer it takes about 4 seconds!!
I have checked the execution log on the RS using the below sql:
Code Snippet
use ReportServer
Select * from ExecutionLog with (nolock) order by TimeStart DESC
It shows that i have a large amount of time for the dataretrieval (601309ms, about 10mins) and does not return any records most likely because of a query timeout:
TimeDataRetrieval TimeProcessing TimeRendering Source Status ByteCount RowCount
601309 2227 3 1 rsSuccess 4916 0
The weird thing is that when i run it in query analyzer, i get about 400 records in 4 seconds !!
I dont understand what RS is doing to take up so much time like this to retrieve data.
The report is very simple - it basically returns the records straight out into a table.
The only thing I somewhat suspected was a parameter data type conflict between RS and SQL, specifically dates. I have a start and end date parameter in the report - i tried specifying this as date and string to see if it made any difference but it didn't.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Some of my queries are running too slow.It's taking as long as 30secs .Earlier the same query was taking less than 5 secs.
I understand the db has grown BUT I do not know to look at this query where should i start from and what should I look into.
It is on production server.
the db size is 15GB and unallocated is 9GB.
log space used is 4%.
TIA.

Howdy. I have a table in my DB that has about 2 million records. The search times are taking 15 - 30 seconds depending on the number of records I am returning. Is this normal? The machine is NT 4 sp6a Dual PIII 866's with 1 GB of RAM on RAID5 SCSI disk. This seems like a long time to me. What kind of performance should I expect? Any kind of tuning steps I can take?
Thanks

Hi All,
Am very new to SQL server so don't really understand what effects the speed of queries. I have the two below queries, which are nearly the same apart from one has a right join and the other doesn't. The both return about 5000 records, and I am implementing this query from an accss databse with an odbc link to sql server. What I don't understand is it takes about 8 seconds for the query with the right join in to return the records and only about 4 seconds for the one without. What I'm after really is just some general advice on how to bulid fast queries, and any advice on the two below queries would be nice. Thanks
SELECT Employees.Name, Calls.CallDate, Calls.CallTime, Calls.Callername, Contacts.CompanyID, Contacts.ContactID, Calls.CallerNumber, Calls.CallerCompany, Calls.ActionTakenID, Calls.OperatorID, Calls.Confirmed, Calls.Charged, Calls.Notes, Company.CompanyName, Operators.Operatorname, Calls.CallID, Calls.ShortMessage
FROM (Contacts INNER JOIN Company ON Contacts.CompanyID = Company.CompanyID) INNER JOIN (Operators INNER JOIN (Employees RIGHT JOIN Calls ON Employees.EmployeesID = Calls.EmployeesID) ON Operators.ID = Calls.OperatorID) ON Contacts.ContactID = Calls.ContactID
WHERE (((Contacts.ContactID)=1442))
ORDER BY Calls.CallDate DESC , Calls.CallTime DESC;
SELECT Employees.Name, Calls.CallDate, Calls.CallTime, Calls.Callername, Contacts.CompanyID, Contacts.ContactID, Calls.CallerNumber, Calls.CallerCompany, Calls.ActionTakenID, Calls.OperatorID, Calls.Confirmed, Calls.Charged, Calls.Notes, Company.CompanyName, Operators.Operatorname, Calls.CallID, Calls.ShortMessage
FROM (Contacts INNER JOIN Company ON Contacts.CompanyID = Company.CompanyID) INNER JOIN (Operators RIGHT JOIN (Employees RIGHT JOIN Calls ON Employees.EmployeesID = Calls.EmployeesID) ON Operators.ID = Calls.OperatorID) ON Contacts.ContactID = Calls.ContactID

Hi, I have absolutely no knowledge of PHP or SQL .... I moderate a PHPBB forum at www.savingshelterpets.com
Our web host (SiteGround) has taken our site down temporarily because we are overloading the server. I have no idea how to fix the problem, so hopefully someone here can help me out! Smiley

Some queries take a long time to complete.
Setup is:
- SQL Express SP2
- Windows Vista Business
- 2 GB RAM
- Core 2 Duo processor
- Connecting to (local) server with SQL Authentication
- only 1 Instance of MSSQLSERVER
Simple queries (SELECT * FROM TableName) wher the table has only a few records. This query may take up to 30 or more to execute. This slowness is consistent to certain tables. Other much larger tables run queries fine.
If a different computer logs in to the same server, queries provide instantaneous results.

I'm working with a table with about 60 million records. This monster is growing every minute of the day as well, by 200,000 - 300,000 records/day. It's 11 columns wide, and has one index on a datetime column. My task is to create some custom reports based on three of these columns, including the datetime one.
The problem is response time. Any query executed on this table takes forever--anywhere between 30 seconds and 4 minutes. Queries such as this one below, as simple as it is, can take a minute or more:
select
count(dt_date) as Searches
from
SearchRecords
where
datediff(day,getdate(),dt_date)=0
As the table gets larger and large, the response time is going to get worse and worse. Long story short, what are my options to get the speed of queries down to just a few seconds with a table this big? So far the best I can come up with is index any other appropriate columns (of which there is one for sure, maybe two).

Hi,
I have succesfully created a Stored Procedure which runs under 2 seconds locally.
However when i run the same proc from another machine in the LAN, the response times vary from 5 sec to over 40 Secs and even occassionally times out.
My server is SQL 2005 Dev Edition (32 Bit) running on a Dual Core Box with 2GB memory.
Any Ideas why this would be happening?

I have some VB.NET code that starts a transaction and after that executes one by one a lot of queries. Somehow, when I take out the transaction part, my queries are getting executed in around 10 min. With the transaction in place it takes me more than 30 min on one query and then I get timeout.
I have checked sp_lock myprocessid and I've noticed there are a lot of exclusive locks on different objects. Using sp_who I could not see any deadlocks.
I even tried to set the isolation level to Read UNCOMMITED and still have the same problem.
As I said, once I execute my queries without being in a transaction everything works great.
Can you help me to find out the problem?
Thanks,
Laura

Hi,
I currently have a large table (35 million rows, over 80GB). I have one varchar(max) column on the table that is used in the fulltext index.
To query the complete index is fast, for example:
SELECT 'ipod', COUNT(*)
FROM CONTAINSTABLE(MyDB.dbo.Contents, [Body], 'ipod') CT
This took 70 seconds (which I can live with). However, I seldom run queries like this, most are more like:
SELECT 'ipod', COUNT(*)
FROM CONTAINSTABLE(MyDB.dbo.Contents, [Body], 'ipod') CT
JOIN Pages ITP ON ITP.PageID = CT.[Key]
JOIN Feeds ITF ON ITP.IPID = ITF.IPID
JOIN Buyers ITB ON ITB.IBID = ITF.IBID
WHERE ITB.ID IN (1342,246)
These queries are much slower (this example took 17 minutes). I understand that FT searches the index and returns all rows that match the query to SQL. SQL then performs the joins and counts only the correct results. (Correct me if I'm wrong here).
One solution I've seen to this to put data or "tags" into the FT column - so my Body column would become something like:
'{ID:1342}' + [Body]
That sounds like a very good idea. I could then change the 2nd query above to be:
SELECT 'ipod', COUNT(*)
FROM CONTAINSTABLE(MyDB.dbo.Contents, [Body], '("ID:1342" OR "ID:246") AND "ipod"') CT
That all works well until I want to select 1000 different ID's because the FT query will become very long and complex. Also I'm only including one column (ID) in this example - but I have about 7 or 8 columns that I would need to include in these "tags". Quering multiple columns become very complex quickly and no doubt I will reach a query limit at somepoint.
If anyone has any other suggestions to the above I'd love to hear them. Another thought I'm having is to partition the table. I can find very little online about how FT behaves on partitioned tables - I fear it behaves exactly the same, what I'd like to think is that I could partition the table on an ID say 100 per partition or something, and then fulltext would only search the relevant partitions. If it behaves like this it may work. If no-one knows then I'll give it ago, but this will take me a while due to the table size - so I'm hoping one of you clever lot know!
Many thanks for any advice.
Simon

I have a 2GHZ cpu with 1GB of RAM. I occassionally see very slow (long) queries against a local SQL Server 2005 Express (SP2) database. The issue occurs against different SQL Queries, but all queries are rather basic select statements Perfmon shows that the SQL Server counter for the "MEMORY GRANT QUEUE WAIT Avg MS" gets extremely high (25000+ ms). Perfmon also also shows that PAGING is not occuring, and the system is not under unsual stress. The problem is not reproducible with MSDE.
Has anyone seen this issue, or have any recommendations for a next course of action?

THis is so annoying. I have 3 ADO executes in my program. THe first one creates a view, the second one performs an outer join on that view and returns a result set, the third execute drops the aforementioned view. THe program that is using this is installed on about 200 computers scattered across Germany and Italy, all querying the same MSsql server 7.0. THe queries run quite quick when few users are actively using the program (after hours for example). however in the heat of the day performance goes up and down dramatically with identical queries taking from 1 to 20 seconds to return their result set. Now I initially thought 'bandwidth issue out of our server'. However I noticed that if I take those three queries and run them from the sql server enterprise manager( running on the same computer as the aforementioned program) then the queries run instantly and the data is in my result pane in less than 2 seconds ALWAYS....even when the program is dogging it with 20 second delays before the result set returns. I know it is hanging on the return of the result set as I put a stop after before each ADO execute in order to check which one was eating up my time. Why is there this dichotomy between running the queries from my enterprise manager versus running them from an ADO object. Both are using TCP/IP (no named pipes involved). I havent monkied with the attributes of the ADO result set so they are all set to default.
I have used the sql server profiler to trace these queries and they always run in less than 33 milliseconds. THe duration is also never more than 33 milliseconds. THis stinks of a network resource issue but what always leads me somewhere else is how consistent the performance of the enterprise manager is when it runs the exact same three queries.
Here is my slightly edited connection string
Public Const connection_string = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=000.000.000.000;" & _
"User ID=johndoe;Password=janedoe;Network=dbmssocn;" & _
"database=fidojoe"
Here are the 3 ADO executes:
conn.Execute (sqlstr_create_view)
Set resultset1 = conn.Execute(sqlstr_get_providers_by_DMISID)
conn.Execute (sqlstr_drop_view)

I hope I am not asking about something that has been done before, but Ihave searched and cannot find an answer. What I am trying to do is torun a query, and then perform some logic on the rowcount and thenpossibly display the result of the query. I know it can be done withADO, but I need to do it in Query Analyzer. The query looks like this:select Varfrom DBwhere SomeCriteriaif @@Rowcount = 0select 'n/a'else if @@Rowcount = 1select -- this is the part where I need to redisplay the resultfrom the above queryelse if @@Rowcount > 1-- do something elseThe reason that I want to do it without re-running the query is that Iwant to minimize impact on the DB, and the reason that I can't useanother program is that I do not have a develpment environment where Ineed to run the queries. I would select the data into a temp table, butagain, I am concerned about impacting the DB. Any suggestions would begreatly appreciated. I am really hoping there is something as simple as@@resultset, or something to that effect.

I am trying to determine which of three stored procedure designs arefastest in the Query Analyzer:One query is a straight SELECT query with all desired rows and a dozen(tblName.RowName = @param or @param = Null) filters in the WHEREstatement.One query populates a #Temp table with the UniqueIDs from the resultsof the SELECT query in the above example, then joins that #Temp tableto get the desired rows.One query users EXEC sp_executesql @sql, @paramlist, @paramin which the @param has the dozen filters.What I'm trying to determine is which is the fastest.Each time I run the query in Query Analyzer it returns the samerecordset (duh!) but with much different Time Statistics.Are the Time Statisticts THE HOLY QRAIL as far as determining which isfastest, and what so I want to look at, the Vale or the Average? Inotice there are different numbers of bytse sen and bytes received foreach of the three queries.Any illumination on this is appreciated.lq

Say you have a state column with the name of a state in it. And you need to add a branchId to the table. I know I should not have it in there, and the application should use proper lookup tables, but that's not the case.
Can SQL Server query analyzer loop through and update the branchid field based on a lookup in a lookup table?
How would that be done?

Does anyone know if there is a limitation in Query Analyzer in terms of the number of characters in a query that it will parse?
I am having a problem with some large queries, and I am not sure if it is Query Analyzer, or the SQL Server query parsing engine that is causing the problem.
The query just involves a simple SELECT statement, albeit for a large number of columns.

Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7.0. I connect to one database in Query Analyzer and I can use the "Perform Index Analysis" option under the "Query" menu option. when I connect to one of our other databases, the "Perform Index Analysis" option under the "Query" menu option is disabled (greyed out). Does anyone know what the problem could be and how might I be able to enable this option.
Thanks in advance,

Hello
In query Analyzer of SQL2000 when i select
2 Select Queries and Run it shows in same Window as 2 Grids
I have seen people using seperate grid option to view each query results in a Tab query results Pane in MSSQL 7.
Eg Select * from table1 (in one grid)
select * from table2 (in another grid)
like a TAB so that i can move from one tab to another.
Is it possible to do that in query Analyzer?

I'm trying to do a couple of things with some different tables.
With the first table, I have first name and last name in two separate columns.
I'm trying to create a new ID column that would do the following.
Take the first 3 letters of the last name (and remove any non characters such as ',&) and the first 3 letters of the first name, and then combine them.
I know how to use substring to take the first three, and I know how to combine them, but I'm having problems removing the non alpha characters.
For example, if the columns looked as follows:
First Last
John O'Connor
I'd want the result to look like OCOJOH, however, I'm getting O'CJOH.
The second issue is how would I do something similar if the First and Last Name were in the same column and string.
For example, if the column looks as follows:
Name
John O'Connor Publishing
I'd like to pull the first 3 from the first string before the space and then the next 3 so it would be as follows:
JOHOCO
Finally, I want to compare these new IDs, and add numbers to them.
So if I had the following
First Last
John O'Connor
Johnny O'Connell
The first would be OCOJOH01
The second would be OCOJOH02
If there are not any duplicates with the new ID, I'd like to call it OCOJOH01 and then move on.
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
