Same Query - Fast On DatabaseA But Timesout On DatabaseB (same Server)
Sep 21, 2007
I have this 3rd party query:
SELECT D_P.PostId, D_P.TopicId, D_P.PostingUserId, D_P.BasePostId, D_P.ParentPostId, D_P.PostLevel, D_P.SortOrder, D_P.PostTitle,
D_P.PostDate, D_P.IsAnon, D_P.FileId, D_P.Property, D_P.IsDeleted, D_P.IsHTML, D_P.LastEdittedByUserId, D_P.LastEditDate,
CAST( ISNULL(D_P.FileId,0) AS BIT ) AS HasFile, F.FileName, CAST( ISNULL( U_RP.IsRead, 0 ) AS BIT) AS IsRead,
CAST( ISNULL( U_RP.IsFlagged, 0 ) AS BIT) AS IsFlagged, CASE WHEN IsAnon = 1 THEN CAST('Anonymous'AS VARCHAR(128))
ELSE U.FirstName+' '+U.LastName END AS Poster
FROM DISCUSSION_POSTS D_P
INNER JOIN USERS U ON D_P.PostingUserId = U.UserId
LEFT JOIN FILES F ON D_P.FileId=F.FileId
LEFT JOIN DISCUSSION_READPOSTS U_RP ON U_RP.UserId = 4265 AND D_P.TopicId = U_RP.TopicId
AND D_P.PostId = U_RP.PostId
WHERE D_P.TopicId = 460106
AND BasePostId IS NOT NULL
AND ((PostTitle LIKE '%flood%') OR (PostText LIKE '%flood%'))
AND ((PostTitle LIKE '%flood%') OR (PostText LIKE '%flood%')) -- No idea why they are doing this twice
ORDER BY PostDate DESC, D_P.PostId DESC
On the same server DatabaseA the query runs in less than 5 seconds. On DatabaseB the query times out. I can not see the execution plan for the query that times out. I am executing the query using SQL Server MGMT Studio. I have rebuilt all of the indexes, stats updated usage. Still no luck. I have checked all of the database setting and they are the same. If I comment out theste 2 lines "AND ((PostTitle LIKE '%flood%') OR (PostText LIKE '%flood%')) " the query run like it should and uses an execution plan all most the same as when using DatabaseA. Any pointers in the the right direction would be greatly apprecited!!!
Oh ya SQL Server EE 2005 sp 2 cu 3
Thanks,

I have a very unusual situation - we converted a client from DB2 7.2 to MS SQL Server 2000, SP3. There is one report that runs very quickly when ran on the Database Server, but it takes a long time to complete when it is ran from a client system. This query is ran from within the application and not from within Query Analyzer.
Has anyone else here ever encountered this issue? What did it turn out to be? I am leaning away from it being a network issue.
Thanks in advance.

I have a relatively simple update statement that runs fine from Query Analyzer and Enterprise Manager (two rows updated in less than 1 sec) but times out when I run it from a VBScript file.
Any ideas?

Ok, I'll admit right off the bat that I never suspected that I'd ever raise this complaint, much less worry about how to fix the "problem" associated with it!
We're preparing to take a large set of changes (projects) to PeopleSoft Financials from development to test. The code is still somewhat rough, but it has been "desk checked" to ensure that it does what the developers think that it ought to do, and they've blessed it at that point. The code is now moving into the test phase, and the QA team is finding locking/blocking issues that we've never seen in this code before... Sort of a "lock avalanche" where no one process locks for very long, but many of them block one another to the point where applications actually "freeze" while almost never hitting a deadlock.
My solution was to create a "blitzkrieg" query / stored procedure that would periodically sample master.dbo.sysprocesses, master.dbo.sysdatabases, and apply one of the dm_ functions to gather information on locking, blocking, and deadlocking. My procedure runs nicely (it never hangs) and gets about 99.3% of the data that I want.
The problem is that the blasted query / stored procedure runs either too fast or too slow, depending on how you look at it. Because the dm_ function takes a few ms to run, there can be a situation where either a row appears as a false positive or as a missing row because of timing... Either the culprit shows up as a blocker, but by the time the victim spid is evaluated the block has cleared, or the row is skipped and by the time the victim is evaluated the block has occured.
The whole process runs in well under 100 ms when there is nothing to report, and I've never seen it run 200 ms yet under the worst conditions it has faced, so the code is fast... The problem is that I really don't want to try to enforce any kind of locking to resolve the issue, because that locking would impact performance and that is EXACTLY what I do NOT want to do.
Any suggestions?

Hello,
I was in a confusion that is Stored Procedures are really fast ? I have a .NET application where I am using Stored Procedures. But recently I cam through this link http://weblogs.asp.net/fbouma/archive/2003/11/18/38178.aspx which describes Stored Procedures are bad and it won't give any performance difference. What is the truth ? Will it give good performance that passing query from the application ?
Please make it clear

I'm trying to figure out how to determine why the same database is fast on my desktop but slow on a robust multiprocessor win2003 server.
I have a complex proc that takes about 27 seconds on my desktop sql server but takes almost 5 minutes on the server. The server processors are running at about 1% utilization while the proc is running.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this extremely poor performance?

Performance issue.
I have a very complex Stored Procedure called by a Job that is Scheduled to run every night.
It's execution takes sometimes 1 or 2 hours and sometimes 7 hours or more.
So, if it is running for more than 4 hours I stop the Job and I run the procedure from a Query Window and it never takes more than 2 hours.
Can anyone help me identify the problem ? I want to run from the Job and not to worry about it.
Some more information:
- It is SQL 2000 Enterprise with SP4 in a Cluster (It happens the same way in any node).
- The SQL Server and SQL Agent services run using a Domain Account that have full Administrative access.
- When I connect to a Query Window I also use a Windows Account.
- There is no locks or process bloking or being blocked while the job is running.
- Using the Task Manager the processor activity is ok, no more than 30 % in any processor.

On my development machine (XP Pro), when I run several reports in a loop, my connection count (in performance monitor) climb up to around 25 then immediately drop back to 1 when the reports are done being generated.
On our production server (WinServer 2003, IIS6) the SQL connection count climbs up to around the same number, then holds there for a few minutes. I know I am closing the connections properly in my code because they clean up fine on the development machine.
I'm sure this is a timeout setting or an IIS 6 option I need to tweak. How can I make my production machine remove those connections faster?

I've been using full-text for quite some time, but I switched to another product for quite some time. The reason is that microsoft full-text doesn't offer the feature where one can get a resultset of page x out of y pages, i.e: give me top 100 matches of page 125 out of 5000 pages. I disappointedly waited for SQL Server 2005 and now it doesn't seem to support in sql server 2008 full-text search either. I had to get all 5000 pages of data, then jumped to page 125 to get just 100 records of that page--had to go get a coffee and came back for a 2+ millions rows table. Customers want the result in a split of a second.
Anyone knows if the final version of sql server 2008 will have better support for paging and getting top x rows? I scanned through 2008 BOL and didn't see any change from sql server 2005 or even sql server 2000 full-text search. (one improvement in sql server 2005 over sql server 2000 was the speed of populating large catalog and multiple languages support)
Thanks,
HH

Storing large graph in
relational form doesn't allow us to perform graph operations such as
shortest path quite efficiently. I'm wondering if storing the graph as
objects would be better? How should I design the schema? Thanks!

I have 2 SQL 2000 servers. One has been added as a linked server.
They both have a db called claims. If I am on server 1 and want to write a sql statement I am stuck with the write syntax
I tried select patient.* from testedi..claims.
The server is linked using the sa user. I know this is simple but in a hurry and stuck. THe servers are on same domain.
Thanks

In an ASP, I have a dynamically created SQL statement that amounts to "SELECT * FROM Server1.myDB.dbo.myTable WHERE Col1 = 1" (Col1 is the table's primary key). It returns the data immediately when executed.
However, when the same record is updated with "UPDATE Server1.myDB.dbo.myTable SET Comments = 'blah blah blah' WHERE Col1 = 1", the page times out before the query can complete.
I watched the program in Profiler, and I saw on the update that sp_cursorfetch was being executed as an RPC once per each row in the table. In a table of 78000 records, the timeout occurs well before the last record is fetched, and the update bombs.
I can run the same statements in Query Analyzer from a linked server and have the same results. The execution plan shows that a Remote Query is occurring on the select that returns 1 row, and a Remote Scan is taking place on the update scanning 78000 rows (I guess this is where all the sp_cursorfetch calls are happening...?).
How can I prevent the Remote Scan? How can I prevent the execution of the RPC sp_cursorfetch for each row in the remote table?
Thank you!

I’m looking for clearity on partition switching. The idea is to use many BULK INSERT statements into table dbo.X_n in parallel and when BULK INSERT for table dbo.X_n is completed, switch dbo.X_n into dbo.bigdaddy. I think this is the fastest way to upload a couple hundred GB of data.
In learning about partition switching (in part) from The Data Loading Performance Guide under Partition SWITCH, I hear the instructions to say copy the main table exactly to become a target. But in that same step (#1), I read that we need to change the default file group of the target (dbo.X_n) from the default file group. Then it says I need to match indexes and lists the filegroup as something we need to match with the main table.
As an overview of the partition switching strategy, I think the whole point of BULK INSERT with partitioning is to have seperate files (in same group) to enable concurrent uploading where each table has its own file. Once the upload is completed to a table (dbo.X_n) then we do the partition switch into the main table (dbo.bigdaddy). The data we just uploaded doesn’t actually move, just the metadata for it.
“Don’t have the same filegroup on your target as the main table. You must have the same filegroup on your target as the main table.”

my system has 2 db's - sql server 2000 & db2 @ separate locations. i have a select query which needs 2 pick up consolidated data from both the tables. also the schema on the db2 has minor changes when compared with the schema on sql server 2000.
while searching on microsoft i came across the technique of creating a linked server. would this be possible 2 implement in my scenario. also would in this case, be advised that i create another view in the db2 server which has changed the db2 schema to the sql server schema format??
please hurry..
regards,

I have stoopidly enough deleted default Db. That causes Enterprise Manager to be unable to work with my DB's. The default DB I deleted had no other functions other then being default DB, I mean it was outdated, and I had other DB's that contained all my importent work. They are still running, and I can view DB driven site hosted at localhost, even though default DB no longer excist. I am even able to upload new content, or add new users, so this means all my other DB's are fine. I can even see SQL server icon in my bottom right corner of my desktop, and it shows server running.
Now I am in the need of adding tables and rework some of my excisting tables and stored procedures, but I am not able to do that with Enterprise Manager, due to the lack of default Database.
How do I correct this problem? I have gotten one tip of doing the following: EXEC sp_defaultdb 'User', 'DB' but I am not sure what to do with this.....tried to run it from command line, and put my username and the DB I would set to default but nothing happend.
So I need more details, step-by-step guiding will work, as I don't know a hole lot about Enterprise Manager and SQL.
Btw, this is my error in Enterpr.Managr:
A connection could not be established to MyComputerVSDOTNET2003
Reason: Cannot open default database. Login failed..
Please verify SQL server is running and check your SQL server registration prpoerties and try again
Pls tell me there is a way to fix this problem.

Hello everybody,
please advice: what is the fastest standard method of user interface access to SQL database? I am looking for fast display of one master record plus related dependent records, plus fast scrolling through master records with display of dependent records as fast as posible. Perhaps a standard problem with standard solution? At current state of matters, I am still much slower then with my old Access97 database.
thanks for any advice,

I notice this morning that my tempdb grows very fast. I have 26GB in my
hardrive and all the space occupied by tempdb and finaly the qeury got failed due to 0 space in hardrive and there is no space to grow tempdb.
The select query supposed to bring about 40000 rows.
I ran this same query in different server that is not growing even 1 mb.
I checked the tempdb option the Trunc log on checkpoint is true.
Why this problem happening ?.
I have just dbo permission to access all the database.
Do you have any advice regarding this?.
Thanks,
Ravi
