SQL Server 2005 Using A Lot Of Processor

Dec 12, 2007


Hi there

Every once in a while (every couple weeks or so) one of our SQL Server 2005 servers will have its performance take a dive. Response time on applications will slow way down. In checking €˜Task Manager€™ the CPU utilization will be up to 50 to 70 percent for the SQL server service. We have tried looking at €˜Perf Mon€™ there doesn€™t seem to be any consistent performance item that is out of whack. On occasion, it may appear to be a lot of paging going on, but I don€™t know what application is causing it. We€™ve looked at SP_who2 to see if there are any blocks, but there do not appear to be any. Though on occasion we will see a €˜Killed/roll-back€™ entry on €˜SP_who2€™ that has a lot of CPU cycles that, at least at one point in time, had a lot of counts against it.

In looking at a trace that we have set up, we don€™t see anything glaring that is held up or even a recurring theme (application) on the list that would point to a problem.

We find that by restarting the SQL Server service, this resolves the issue for another couple of weeks.

Is there something that I can look at that would tell me at least, what PC name is doing all of the IO against the database. I could then at least call the user and say €˜Hey, what are you doing€™ so that we can start to narrow down what is going on.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

SQL 2005 Standard Ed - Processor Licence

Jul 4, 2007

We are in the process of installing SQL 2005 Standard Edition on Servers with two Intel Xeon 2.6Ghz processors. We want to buy a processor licence for each server rather than CAL's, but do we have to buy two processor licences or is it possible to configure SQL 2005 to only use one processor on a dual processor server and thus only need to buy a single processor licence.

Planning For SQL Server 2005: 64-bit, OS, Processor, Memory

Jul 23, 2005

I was browsing Microsoft's SQL Server site, looking forsome details about SQL Server 2005. Didn't find whatI was looking for...I'm thinking about moving an existing SQL Server 2000workload to a new box, using SQL Server 2005, andmaybe the 64-bit version.My questions are:1. What is the current target date for release of SQL Server 2005?Will 64-bit ship when 32-bit ships?2. Will 64-bit SQL Server 2005 require a special versionof Windows Server 2003 (e.g. Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64)?Will it work with both Intel and AMD processors?3. How many CPUs, and how much memory, will be supported bySQL Server 2005, 32-bit and 64-bit, on each OS that can runSQL Server 2005.I'm looking for a chart here, something like the chart onpage 117 of Kalen Delaney's "Inside SQL Server 2000" book.SQL Server 2005 SQL Server 2005Feature Enterprise 32-bit Enterprise 64-bit------------------- ----------------- -----------------CPUs supportedWin Srvr 2003:Win Srvr 2003 Adv:Win Srvr 2003 Ent x64:Physical memorysupportedWin Srvr 2003:Win Srvr 2003 Adv:Win Srvr 2003 Ent x64:Has Microsoft published this info, and I just can find it?

SQL Server 2005 Hogging Processor And Not Using Memory

Sep 25, 2006

Hi,

We have recently tested upgrading our web service from sql 2000 to 2005 sp1. The upgrade went smoothly enough, however we now have the problem of the sqlserver.exe process taking 90-100 % of the processors time, but using only 100 MB of memory.

We have 6GB available and we are running the enterprise editions of Windows 2003 and SQL 2005.

Machine specs,

DL380 G2, 2 X 2.8 Ghz Zeon, 6GB ram, Raid 5, database partition of 140 GB, Log partition of 35 GB.

Db is 25 GB, Log is 12 GB. Largest table has 32 million rows.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

64 Bit SQL Server 2005 Process Is Only Utilizing One Processor Whereas In 32 Bit Environ. Uses Multiple Processors

Oct 9, 2007



Hello all,

We've had a problem for a few months now that has completely stumped us. We are running a heavily cursored massive data manipulation process on a 32 bit SQL Server instance running on a virtual machine, running ontop of VMWare, with the following specs

Processors: 2x2674MHz processors
Memory: 4GB
RAID 10 disk config

When we run our process on this machine, in total it runs in 30 hours.

When this process is run on another 32 bit server with the following specs

Processors: 8x3658MHx processors
Memory: 8 GB
SAN w/ RAID 5 disk config

It runs 25% slower

But here is the real kicker. When this process is run on a 64 bit server with the following specs

Processors: 8x3658MHz processors
Memory: 8 GB
SAN w/ RAID 5 disk config

It runs 75% slower.

This process consists solely of stored procedures written in TSQL. The weird thing is that on our smaller server, the CPUs' % utilization are evenly balanced (at 20-30%) when this large data manipulation process is running. However on the bigger servers, SQL Server latches onto a single processor and doesn't load balance across other processors. Such that what we're seeing is that only one processor out of the eight will be utilized and it will be throttled at 90% while the other 7 are at zero.

The default configuration settings in all three places.

Has anyone ever seen any behavior like this, where only one processor gets used by SQL Server during processing? Granted our processes are single threaded b/c they are using cursors but, it seems that the single thread shouldn't be restricted to one processor.

Any thoughts?

Standard Edition 2005 Not Installing On Dual Processor Quad Core (8 Way)

Feb 27, 2008

hi all,
I was under the impression that SQL Server 2005 can install on dual processor, quad core Intel machines.

Here's what we have: Intel Quad Core Xeon (E7340) @ 2.4Ghz. (8 way)

Has anyone encountered any issues w/ this setup -- particularly on this Intel CPU version?

Internal Query Processor Error: The Query Processor Encountered An Unexpected Error During Execution.

Nov 26, 2007



I am running a query on a SQL Server 2005 database and encounter the following error message


"Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor encountered an unexpected error during execution."

There is a join between a table on the 2005 database and another on a 2000 database. I have run DBCC CHECKTABLE and found no errors on the two tables.

Anybody with ideas?

SQL Server 2005 Error 8630: Internal Query Processor Error

Jan 22, 2007

I have a SProc that runs across many clients without any problems. Every now and then, though, I get the following error:

Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor encountered an unexpected error during execution. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 8630).

All I am doing is populating Temp tables with some data and then joining them together to create a Global Temp table that is being BCP'd to a network share.

Has anyone come across this error in SQL Server 2005? I cannot find anything on Google or Microcsoft.

Thanks,
Robert

SQL 2005 V9.0.2047 (SP1) - The Query Processor Could Not Produce A Query Plan

May 15, 2006

Hi Everyone:

*Before* I actually call up Microsoft SQL Customer Support Services and ask them, I wanted to ping other people to see if you have ever ran into this exact error

"Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."

I would have searched the forums myself, but at this moment in time, search is broken :(

If anyone has run into this error before, what conditions would exist that this could happen? That is, if I can sniff this out with suggestions from the community, I would be happy to do so.

It is an oddity because if I alter a couple subqueries in the where clause [ i.e., where tab.Col = (select val from tab2 where id='122') ]to not have subqueries [hand coded values], then the t-sql result is fine. It's not as if subqueries are oddities... I've used them when appropriate.

fwiw - Not a newbie t-sql guy. ISV working almost daily with t-sql since MS SQL 2000. I have never seen this message before...at least I don't recall ever seeing it.

Thanks in advance for other suggested examination paths.

Error: 8624 Internal Query Processor Error: The Query Processor Could Not Produce A Query Plan.

May 24, 2007

SQL Server 2005 9.0.3161 on Win 2k3 R2



I receive the following error:



"Error: 8624, Severity: 16, State: 1 Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."



I have traced this to an insert statement that executes as part of a stored procedure.



INSERT INTO ledger (journal__id, account__id,account_recv_info__id,amount)

VALUES (@journal_id, @acct_id, @acct_recv_id, @amount)



There is also an auto-increment column called id. There are FK contraints on all of the columns ending in "__id". I have found that if I remove the contraint on account__id the procedure will execute without error. None of the other constraints seem to make a difference. Of course I don't want to remove this key because it is important to the database integrity and should not be causing problems, but apparently it confuses the optimizer.



Also, the strange thing is that I can get the procedure to execute without error when I run it directly through management studio, but I receive the error when executing from .NET code or anything using ODBC (Access).

Isolating A Processor For SQL 7

Dec 7, 2000

I have a rather intensive load on a server that has a data mapping application on the same server(I know this is a no no but I didn't have a say). It seems to be maxing the CPU. Is there a way on a dual or quad processor machine to tell SQL Server to only use one of the processors?

Processor Allocation

Nov 4, 2002

I was wondering, is there a way to allocate processors to SQL2000. I have a server that has 4 processors, I would like to leave one just for the operating system and have SQL2000 use the other 3. Is this possible and do you think it would be recomended to do this? Or should i just leave the 4 processors for everything?

thanks in advance

How Can I Use More Than One Processor For SQL-Server

Jan 1, 1999

I am having a powerfull Server (DELL - PowerEdge 6100/200) with 4 processors, 1 GB Ram, 6 Discs a 9 GB.

But the SQL-Server runs only on 1 processor. That means when I look at the Windows NT Task Manager it shows only 25 % used.

Can anybody give me a hint or and has anybody an idea how to modify the SQL-Server or the DELL-Server to use all 4 processors.

thank you Hubert

Processor Upgrade

Nov 20, 2007

Has anyone ever upgraded the processors in their SQL Servers? Like shut it down, swaped out the processors with new ones, and turned it back on. Assuming the OS boots fine, is there any issues with SQL Server now its suddenly running on new hardware?

I have to assume that this is not that uncommon of an activity, and the OS and SQL Server should be fine.

Basically we are contemplating upgrading our quad processor (Xeon Cranford's) with four dual cores.

Multi Processor Is Slower

May 3, 2001

I know this won't be a lot to go on but, we has a quad processor box that is doing a lot of sql crunching. When we turn off three of the processors it runs the SQL queries faster. The requests are comming from COM objects. CPU, Memory, page faults, all that stuff is fine. Also SQL dosen't appear to be using all the processors as only 1 has any amount of usage?. Any suggestions of where to start would be most appreaciated.

Single Processor And MultiProcessor

Jul 5, 2000

Has anyone seen a problem where a SQL Server Application works on a server with a single Processor, However when placed on a box with multi-processors it fails. You do not receive any errors but the data set that is returned is not correct. When reviewing this problem on a test machine that only is a single processor we can not duplicate it. The Production Box is Multi Processor 2 pentium pro 200's with SQL Server 7.0 and no Service Packs. My Question is has any one ever seen this problem, and would installing the SP correct it, I plan on installing the SP's but I wonder if this could be the cause of the problem.

Processor Bottleneck On Server

Aug 6, 1999

Good morning,

I've just updated my databases to V7.0 from 6.5. I am having some issues with CPU utilization after rebuilding the databases. I rebuilt the databases from scripts after modifying the scripts to deal with any SQL issues between the versions.

Symptoms:

When a bunch of stored procedures are executed the % Processor Time his 100% on a single processor system, the Processor Queue Length hits 13, the Batch Request/Sec starts at 20 and rises to 47 before dropping off, Context Switches go from 370/sec to about 833/sec before dropping off and there is an increase in page faulting.

My testing was done on a single processor but my real system is dual-300+ with 128Mb RAM. The database is only 40Mb and after running the index wizard there were no changes advised.

After reading a lot in help areas for MS and here I am not sure if this has to do with how SQL Server runs now (i.e. system configuration) or if it is a query issue with parallelism. I'm assuming query parallelism since the performance spikes occur when stored procedures are run. On a single processor is there a way to address this. Then, hopefully, I can deal with the real multiprocessor system.

Thanks much,

Don

SQL Server Per Processor License

Jul 20, 2004

If I install an instance of SQL Server on a box with 4 processors but specify in the licensing part of the installation procedure that it's a '2 processor license', does that really mean that SQL Server will only use 2 of the 4 processors? I ask because, having done this, if I check the SQL Server instance's properties, on the Processors tab, there are 4 processors ticked - giving the impression that 4 processors are being used by this SQL Server instance. Can anyone throw some light on this?

Another question... If I wish to reconfigure the same SQL Server instance from a 2 to a 4 processor 'per processor' license, how can this be done?

Qry Analyzer: Processor Utilization

Jan 30, 2004

I have noticed that when using SQL Query Analyzer some of my queries will use 100% CPU on my PC and next to nothing on the SQL server, while other Queries require 100% CPU on SQL server and do next to nothing on my PC. Does anyone know what determines this??

Right now I can produce this by executing two very similar T-SQL selects. The one that runs on the server only has one additional join - a very simply join at that. If I can change my SQL to make it run client side in some situations, that would be VERY HELPFUL!

Thanks in advance!
