Size Of Tables
Nov 8, 2006Hi,
I have a database which is 25 GB in size. The database has few tables.
Can I individually find out which table is occupying more space?
Thanks

Size Of Tables
Jan 21, 2000I am finding that the size of my SQL Server 7 tables are approx 75% LARGER than the same Visual FoxPro table. I am not considering indexes in either one. The only difference is that the SQL Server table has a timestamp that the Visual FoxPro table does not.
Is this normal? or did I do something wacko?
I upsized the data from Visual Fox to SQL by appending the info in the Visual Fox table into a remote view and then doing a TABLEUPDATE to send it to SQL Server.
Any help would be appreciated.

Size Of Tables
Nov 16, 2001I'm having to do some estimation on the size of the db that I will eventually create.
I have a 6.7 million row table that holds 5 integers and a varchar(8).
Therefore my crude maths are that an integer is 4 bytes and a varchar is max 8 and therefore each line is 28 maxmimum bytes long. Multiply by 6.7 million and you get 1876000000 bytes or 183203KB or 179MB's.
With me playing with this table the db has balooned from 23mb to 1,325mb. This doesnt work out. One possible explanation is if SQL Server does the same as Access and you need to compress to gain the space back. I wasn't aware of this though. I have filled and emptied the table several times over to test the import routine.
I therefore have a few questions.
1. Why has the db ballooned to this size?
2. How do I accurately work out future db/table sizes?
3. Is there a way to work out the size of a table?
4. Do SQL db's have to be compacted like Access's?
Help appreciated.
Size Of Tables
Jun 5, 2008Hi,
I know I can check individual table's properties for the size and row count of each, but is there a way of doing it for all tables within a database in SQL server 2005 ? I have about 69 tables in one..

SQL 2005 Resize Initial Log Size: MODIFY FILE Failed. Specified Size Is Less Than Current Size.
Sep 4, 2007
I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "

Database Size Info Without Cursors Or Temp Tables
Jan 22, 2004I have seen a bunch of ways to get the size of all the tables within a database posted on this board. I decided to modify an older one I found here (http://www.sqlteam.com/item.asp?ItemID=282). I set it up so there is no cursors or temp tables. Pretty much just one select statement to return all the info you would need. It seems to be faster than anything I have seen so far. Take it for whats its worth. Thanks to the original creator.

Impact Of Empty Tables On Database Size And Performance
Jun 21, 2007 Hello All,
When creating my database I have modeled some of the tables after the Adventureworks sample database.
There are some fields or entire tables in Adventureworks that I do not see an imediate use for, however; I would hate to ommit them to find out later they would have been benificial. (.eg territory table).
In general terms what would the impact be on size and performance of a database which contains tables or fields that do not contain data.
Thanks for your help!
Transact SQL :: Database Size Does Not Decrease After Dropping All The Tables
Oct 15, 2015I have a database consisting of two main tables and 12 sub tables.
This was leading to increase in database size. So we thought of storing the sub tables data in the main tables in form of xml  in a column of varchar(2000) type.
So we created a new database that only had 2 tables and we stored the data of the sub tables in the new column of the main table.
Surprisingly we saw that the database size increased rather than decreasing .

View 1 Replies View RelatedHuge Tables: Minimizing Row Size - Remove Null Bitmap
Apr 21, 2007I am in the process of designing a SQL 2005 database with tables that may hold several hundreds of millions of rows.
Due to various constraints, I am trying to save as much space as possible by optimizing the size of a row. Currently one row contains the following columns:
byte(4), byte(3), byte(3) = 10 bytes.
Adding 4 bytes for the row header, plus 3 bytes for the null bitmap (as described in BOL) I am ending up with 17 bytes/row. In a real world test it was an average of 18.3 bytes/row.
There are no indexes, no primary key and all columns are not NULL. Hence my question: since no column allows a null value, is there a possibility to "remove" the 3 bytes Null Bitmap?
Is there any other way to shave off one or two more bytes by using a clustered index etc?
Thanks
SQL 2012 :: Check Size Of Database After Implementing Data Compression Across All Tables
Dec 4, 2014I found it pretty interesting. I checked the size of a database, before implementing database compression across all the user tables in a database. And Post implementation of compression too I checked the size of the database.
I did not find any difference. But if I expand the table and check propetires->storage and I can see that PAGE compression is implemented across all the tables, but no compaction in the size of the db. It still remains the same.

Reporting Services :: Keep Multiple Data Tables Having Fixed Size Data In Same Page On Runtime?
Jul 31, 2015I have a report where in I have a combination of matrix ,table data regions.
The problem what I am facing is that the data tables don't remain fixed in their position and they tend to move down.
E.g. table 1 and table 2Â are on the same page in design time side by side (right and left)however during the runtime the table1 is pushed down and table2 is at its position .
Now how can I keep them all fixed in their same position. Most of the tables have fixed size rows and some who have high size of rows have been put at the end . What settings we can set?

Error - Output Param - SP - Size Property Has An Invalid Size Of 0
Nov 14, 2007Using C#, SQL Server 2005, ASP.NET 2, in a web app, I've tried removing the size from parameters of type NCHAR, NVARCHAR, and VARCHAR. I'd rather just send a string and let the size of the parameter in the SP truncate any extra chars if need be. I began getting the error below, and eventually realized it happened only with output parameters, as in the code snippet below.String[3]: the Size property has an invalid size of 0. par = new SqlParameter("@BusinessEntity", SqlDbType.NVarChar); par.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; cmd.Parameters.Add(par); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();What's the logic behind this? Is there any way around it other than either finding out what the size should be, or assigning a size larger than would ever be needed? ThanksMike Thomas

Best Practice For Data Size/Log Size Ratio
Jul 23, 2005Just wanted to know what is a general rule of thumb when determining log file space against a database's data file.We allow our data file for our database to grow 10%, unlimited. We do not allow our log file to autogrow due to a specific and poorly written process (which we are in a three month process of remove) that can balloon the log file size.Should it be 10% of the Data file, i.e. if the Date file size is 800MB the log file should be 8MB?I realize there are a myraid of factors that go against file size but a general starting point would be nice.ThanksJeff--Message posted via http://www.sqlmonster.com
