Slow Startup Of SSIS Package If Started Using A SQL Server Job
Apr 25, 2007Hello all,
We have noticed in our environment slowness when starting SSIS packages from SQL Server jobs. I did a quite detailed study on when the slowness actually occurs and what are the consequences. Here are the results.
The SSIS package execution is slow if all the following is true:
The package is started from a job. If started directly as a SSIS package, the execution is fast.
The job is running on a 64 bit Windows Server (SQL Server 2005 SP2). The SSIS package and the job are either on the same server or on different servers (the second server is SQL Server 2005 SP1). If the job is run on a 32-bit workstation (Windows XP SP2) the execution is fast (the SSIS package still being on the server).
The package contains tasks.
§ If there are no tasks, just an empty sequence container, the execution is fast.
§ If a package that has no tasks has logging into the database configured, the execution is fast.
§ Slowness has been verified with A) a package having a single Execute SQL statement and B) a package having a Send Mail task.
It doesn't seem to matter which user account is used on when running the job.
The slowness happens in several locations, e.g. (there are also others, at least the following have been verified)
There is exactly 30 seconds lag between starting the job (as seen from job history) and when PreValidate (as seen in the sysdtslog90 table) of the package appears in the log.
The validation of the package takes 15 seconds (the time difference in the log betwen PreValidate and PackageStart)
The problem is really affecting our production environment. Currently the only solution we have come up is to put all the jobs on a workstation and use the workstation as a production server for the jobs.
I haven't heard anyone else having the same problem.
SSIS Package Runs Slow On Virtual Server

Slow Connection To SQL Server 2005
Mar 4, 2008Hi!
I have a SQLServer 2005 running om a 64bit cluster. It is used to run a SharePoint 2007 portal. My problem is that the access to the database from the other servers in the farm is very slow.
I made a test program in C# that creates a standard .Net sqlConnection and runs a simple query 100 times. When run on the database server it takes less than a second, but when I run it from the web frontend server it takes 30 seconds. It never fails, it's just slow. The network connection is fast when copying files etc.
I see nothing out of the ordinary in the event log.
Do any of you have an idea what might be the problem or know how I could try to find the problem?
Thanks!
SQL Server 2005 Express Very Slow
Apr 26, 2007Hi,
I have got an application running which connects 2 databases and performs an action that copies data from one database to the other database.
When using SQL Server 2000 MSDE, it takes about 5 seconds.
When using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition it takes about 30 seconds.
For testing 2005, I use 'upgraded' databases, so same indexes and data. I tried reindexing the databases, but always get the same result.
My setup string for installing SQL Server 2005 Express is :
/qb ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTANCENAME=DBNAME SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=QWERTY SQLACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM"
The code (ADO) is something like :
SELECT FROM original database
-- do something with data
INSERT INTO other database
Until EOF
Any idea how to solve this ???
P.S. When perfoming a simple Query on the databases (with 1.000.000 rows result) with SQL Server Management Studio Express, I see 37 seconds for SQL Server 2000 and 33 Second for SQL Server 2005. That is more the result I expect.

Very Slow Data Access On SQL Server 2005?
Jul 5, 2006Hi
Here is the brief to my problemWe had our database on SQL Server 2000 and Windows 2000.This machine
had 2gb of RAM and dual Penitum 3 processors and about 25-30 users were
connected all the time. The size of database is around 2 gb. Even on this setup
rate of data retrival was good, never had any issues. We moved to SQL Server 2005 and Windows 2003. This machines has
2 Pentium Xeon 3.4 processors and 2 stick of KINGSTON 1024 MB 333
MHZ DDR DIMM ECC CL2.5 DUAL RANK X4 INTEL. The rate of data
retrival is awful and its very slow. It using about 1.7 to 1.9 gb of RAM all the
time. Page File usage is about 2.07 gb and Virtual Usage is about 1.7gb.I dont quiet understand why is it so slow to get data. We use bespoke software,
so nothing has changed there. Hardware specification of our server is far more better then the recommended
system requirement for SQL Server 2005.Am i missing something out or i havent set up the SQL Server properly? Any help would really be appreciated.Mits
SQL Server 2005 Stored Procedure Is Very Slow Vs. SQL Server 2000
Apr 18, 2008Hi there,
I was wondering if someone can point out the error or the thing I shouldn't be doing in a stored procedure on SQL Server 2005. I want to switch from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 which all seems to work just fine, but one stored procedure is causing me headache.
I could pin the problem down to this query:
DECLARE @Package_ID bigint
DECLARE @Email varchar(80)
DECLARE @Customer_ID bigint
DECLARE @Payment_Type tinyint
DECLARE @Payment_Status tinyint
DECLARE @Booking_Type tinyint
SELECT @Package_ID = NULL
SELECT @Email = NULL
SELECT @Customer_ID = NULL
SELECT @Payment_Type = NULL
SELECT @Payment_Status = NULL
SELECT @Booking_Type = NULL
CREATE TABLE #TempTable(
PACKAGE_ID bigint,
PRIMARY KEY (PACKAGE_ID))
INSERT INTO
#TempTable
SELECT
PACKAGE.PACKAGE_ID
FROM
PACKAGE (nolock) LEFT JOIN BOOKING ON PACKAGE.PACKAGE_ID = BOOKING.PACKAGE_ID
LEFT JOIN CUSTOMER (nolock) ON PACKAGE.CUSTOMER_ID = CUSTOMER.CUSTOMER_ID
LEFT JOIN ADDRESS_LINK (nolock) ON ADDRESS_LINK.SOURCE_TYPE = 1 AND ADDRESS_LINK.SOURCE_ID = CUSTOMER.CUSTOMER_ID
LEFT JOIN ADDRESS (nolock) ON ADDRESS_LINK.ADDRESS_ID = ADDRESS.ADDRESS_ID
WHERE
PACKAGE.PACKAGE_ID = ISNULL(@Package_ID,PACKAGE.PACKAGE_ID)
AND PACKAGE.CUSTOMER_ID = ISNULL(@Customer_ID,PACKAGE.CUSTOMER_ID)
AND PACKAGE.PAYMENT_TYPE = ISNULL(@Payment_Type,PACKAGE.PAYMENT_TYPE)
AND PACKAGE.PAYMENT_STATUS = ISNULL(@Payment_Status,PACKAGE.PAYMENT_STATUS)
AND BOOKING.BOOKING_TYPE = ISNULL(@Booking_Type,BOOKING.BOOKING_TYPE)
-- If this line below is included the request will take about 90 seconds whereas it takes 1 second if it is outcommented
--AND ADDRESS.EMAIl LIKE '%' + ISNULL(@Email, ADDRESS.EMAIL) + '%'
GROUP BY
PACKAGE.PACKAGE_ID
DROP TABLE #TempTable
The request is performing quite well on the SQL Server 2000 but on the SQL Server 2005 it takes much longer. I already installed the SP2 x64, I'm running the SQL Server 2005 on a x64 environment.
As I stated in the comment in the query it takes 90 seconds to finish with the line included, but if I exclude the line it takes 1 second.
I think there must be something wrong with the join's or something else which has maybe changed in SQL Server 2005. All the tables joined have a primary key.
Maybe you folks can spot the error / mistake / wrong type of doing things easily.
I would appreciate any help you can offer me to solve this problem.
On the web I saw that there is a Cumulative Update 4 for the SP2 which fixes the following:
942659 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942659/)
FIX: The query performance is slower when you run the query in SQL Server 2005 than when you run the query in SQL Server 2000
Anyhow I think the problem is something else, I haven't tried out the cumulative update yet, as I think it is something different, more general why this query takes ages to process.
Thanks again for any help

Copying Table Data From SQL Server 2005 To SQL Server 2000 - Very Slow When Using OLEDB Source And Destination Sources?
May 8, 2006An SSIS package to transfer data from a DB instance on SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 is extremely slow. The package uses an OLEDB Source to OLEDB Destination for data transfer which is basically one table from sql server 2005 to sql server 2000. The job takes 5 minutes to transfer about 400 rows at night when there is very little activity on the server. During the day the job almost always times out.
On SQL Server 200 instances the job ran in minutes in the old 2000 package.
Is there an alternative to this. Tranfer Objects task does not work as there is apparently a defect according to Microsoft. Please let me know if there is any other option other than using a Execute 2000 package task or using an ActiveX Script to read records from one source and to insert them into the destination source, which I am not certain how long it might take and how viable will that be?
Any inputs will be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Extreme Slow SQL Server 2005 And High CPU Usage - Casting Of Values
Feb 20, 2006Hello sql and .net gurus :-)I have a problem with my website www.eventguide.it. It's completly developed under .NET 2 and SQL Server 2005 Express. My problem is the folowing:The server is a Intel 3Ghz HT processor with 1GB Ram. No other page on the running system is a CPU consuming site. We optimized the SQL statements, the code, the caching and many other parts of the website (pooling on SQL access), but the SQL Server uses about 50% to100% of the CPU and about 400MB RAM all the time. The whole site seems to be very, very slow. In fact there are many of SQL operations on every page request, but we cache a lot of them in different ways (page output caching, application caching). So I don't understand we have so much performance problems. Any suggestions for optimised code in general? I read nearly all of the MS .NET performance papers - but real world experience is the missing part :-) It is better to cast the values of a SQL reader like thisDim String1 as String = Ctype(DataReader.item(0), String)Dim Integer1 as Intger = Ctype(DataReader.item(1), Integer)or like thisDim String1 as String = DataReader.item(0)
Dim Integer1 as Intger = DataReader.item(1)Thanks a lot for your help!FOX
Slow SQL 2005 X64 Standard Edition Performance On Windows Server 2003 X64
Apr 5, 2008I am having major performance issues with Microsoft SQL 2005 x64 Standard Editions performance on Windows Server 2003 x64. The PC has two quad core cpu's with 8gb of ram and running a 500gb mirrored SCSI (Raid 1) drive system. The database running on the server is about 11gb. I've run a defrag several times which helps a little but I was hoping I could do something else to increase the performance.
I have also found that the bottle neck in the SSIS package is the backup and restore process of an 11gb database which takes about 1 hour (backup takes 1 hour and restore takes 1 hour) when it should take about 11 minutes. Is there anything I can do to make these processes run faster or to find out why they are taking so long? Any ideas would be a great help.
Thanks,

Slow Connection. ASP Page Querying A Linked Server On MSSQL 2005
Dec 28, 2006Creating a web application. Running a simple query "SELECT username FROM vwCustomer"
vwCustomer is a view built on top of an Access DB which is set up as a linked server. Within SQL Server that view responds immediately. But when I try to access it from an ASP page it takes over 20 seconds to respond.
Used the following to create the linked server:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver 'DBName', 'Jet 4.0', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'c:databasesdatabase.mdb'
GO
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'DBName', FALSE, NULL, 'Admin', ''
GO
The view is simply(this works fine in SQL Server):
SELECT * FROM DBName.db.dbo.customer
The ASP page:
SELECT * FROM vwCustomer
Can anyone give me a hint as to where the bottleneck is? Or how I can figure that out using SQL Profiler or something?
Please help!
Slow Performance When Rendering Pages In SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services
Jul 3, 2007I have designed a fairly simple report in report designer that uses an analysis services cube as its input, and a basic matrix object as the primary design component. Cube performance either via object browser in Analysis Services or via connection from Excel is great. It does exactly what you build a cube for, i.e. it builds aggregations you can get to quickly. However rendering from a report designer report within Report Manager is a different story.
Even though this report is being rendered from an execution snapshot, it is painfully slow at opening and closing different levels of drill down. The report does have six levels of drill down, which I am sure is a factor. If I use a smaller dataset, performance does become more acceptable. However, I don't consider the requirements of my report to be all that extraordinary.
My conclusion thus far is that larger data sets with many possible page renderings are not the best candidates for HTML rendered reports. In this case Microsoft's cube analysis add-in to Excel might be a better choice. Thoughts and feedback on either how to improve the rendering speed or other presentation alternatives that would perform better would all be welcome.
Slow SQL 2005 64bit Standard Edition Performance On Windows Server 2003

DTS To SSIS - Very Slow Performance
Feb 7, 2008I have a bunch of packages that take views and create tables from them. Some of the views are rather complex, but the packages themselves are very simple... drop and re-create a table using the data from a view on the same server. We create a new DB for each year, and this year we've upgraded to a new server with SQL 2005, so our DTS packages on the 2000 SQL server had to be recreated in SSIS on the new server. No problem, as I said the packages are really simple. But when I create the packages in SSIS they now take an extremely long time to execute, and I cannot figure out why.
For instance, one DTS package would take approximately 5 minutes to run when the view contained hundreds of thousands of rows and the underlying tables contained millions. But now, even with MUCH smaller tables (since it's the beginning of the year, new DB) the SSIS package I created on the new server takes over an hour, literally. The view that the SSIS package is using to create the table only takes about 15 seconds to execute in management studio (only about 16,000 rows). How can this possibly take so long??
the new server is virtually the same hardware-wise... 4 x 2400mhz, 4gb ram, win2k3 server
RAPI CopyFileToDevice Slow After Switch From Mobile 2005 To Compact 2005
Sep 12, 2007I have a windows forms application that runs on my PC that populates a SQL Server Compact 2005 database and then transfers that .sdf file to my mobile device. The communication between the mobile device and PC is done using the Desktop RAPI class from OpenNetCF (http://www.opennetcf.com/FreeSoftware/DesktopCommunication/tabid/90/Default.aspx)
Anyway, I was previously using SQL Server Mobile 2005 and my populated .sdf was around 1.7 MB and I could transfer it to my mobile device in a minute. Once I switched to SQL Server Compact 2005, the transfer process began taking 3 minutes with a 1.5 MB .sdf file. The SSCE also got bloated more easily so I added in the Compact operation each time after I fully populate the SDF to keep the file size at 1.5 MB, but even then it still takes 3 minutes.
I've done a few tests where I simply switch between the two database versions and that simple switch of the version changes the transfer time. I am dumbfounded trying to figure out what the cause might be. Since it is just a file transfer, why would the version even matter unless somehow SSCE is really not compacting and lying about its actual size.
Has anyone run into anything similar to this or may have any ideas what might be going on?
Thanks.
SSIS Lookup Very Slow To Cache

the package extract from live to reporting server. some of my packages are very slow about 10 of them. strage enough the ones with more data number of rows run very fast. I'm using Source->Lookup->Conditional split->OLEDB Destination or OLDB Comand.
Can someone help me to found out what could be the problem. I'm very new in SSIS.
SSIS Package Very Slow In Design
Feb 21, 2007Hello,
I have designed a quite small SSIS package and everything worked just fine .
Untill I moved the SSIS project folder to another solution folder and added whole solution to Visual source safe.
Since then opening the package for design has become unbelievably slow, debugging it even worse.
I think the cause is in moving the SSIS project folder. But I have no idea how to fix this.
Any suggestions ?

Parameter Passing In SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) 2005
Jan 16, 2007Hi All,
Parameter passing in SSIS 2005 sometimes appears to be a cumbursome task. I have been digging into this topic for quite some time and here i note down some simple steps to demonstrate parameter passing at Package level.
(1) Create a SSIS project using Business Intelligence 2005 Or VS 2005.
(2) Create datasource (.ds) and Data Source View as required.
(3) A default SSIS Package by the name Package.dtsx is created. Double click this and you are shown tabs for Control Flow, Data Flow, Event Handlers, Package Explorer. On the Control Flow, drap and drop Execute SQL Task from Control Flow Items in the toolbar.
(4) Lets now create a variable at Package level. Right click anywhere in the control flow box (not on the Task created in Step 3 above). Click on the Variables on the context menu displayed. Variables window appears on the left of the screen. Click the Add Variable box in this window to create a variable. Name it var1 (or whatever you may like), Scope as Package, DataType as String and Value as MyValue. This is only the default value.
(5) Now let us edit the SQL Task created in Step 3. Double on it, on the General tab you can change its Name, Description. Set ResultSet as None. We shall proceed to execute a stored procedure by name MySPName and pass it a parameter. Set ConnectionType as OLE DB. Select the connection you creates in step 2. Set SQLSourceType as Direct input. SQLStatement as MySPName ? . Note the ? mark after the name of the stored procedure. This is important to accept the variable value (var1) created in Step 4.
(6) Select Parameter Mapping tab now. Click on Add button. Select the Variable Name as User::var1. This is the user created variable of Step 4. Select Direction as Input, DataType as Varchar and Parameter Name as @var1. Click on OK now.
(7) This sets up the basic of parameter passing. Compile the project to verify everything works. Right Click on the SQL Task and select Execute Task. This will execute the package taking default value of the variable. This can be used along with dtexec command with /set option to pass the parameter at command prompt.

Slow Response From SQL 2005
Sep 28, 2007hi,
I ran into a situation that if I don't use sql server for a while, in MS SQL Server Management Studio, when I run some query again, it takes a long time to respond. I looked into it with Activity Monitor, seems like the query was waiting for something, in the process view tab, it shows that:
WaitType: LATCH_EX
Resource: LOG_MANAGER(112F88C8)
What is the latch-ex? What should I check next to find out the problem?
