Slow Performance When Executing Sql From A Vista Machine.
Dec 28, 2007
SQl server 2005 version: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3054.00 (Intel X86) Mar 23 2007 16:28:52 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Developer Edition on Windows NT 6.0 (Build 6000: ) .
Our customer has a SQL Server 2005 installed on a machine running Windows Vista.
Our application is running on a XP machine and on the Vista machine and its connected to the SQL server running on Windows Vista.
The customer table has 5498 records.
IF she runs the query "SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER WHERE dateadd(dd,0, datediff(dd,0,Lastupdated))>'20070101' ORDER BY [CustomerID]" using our application from the XP machine it takes a few seconds - 3 to 6 seconds.
If, instead, she runs the same query from the Vista machine it takes more than 5 minutes!!
This problem happens on every Vista machine.
We even installed the SQL Server 2005 on Windows Server 2003 but every time our application is run from a Vista machine this delay occurs.
The problem doesn't seem to be SQL SERver 2005 related because when we run from the XP machine everything is ok.
Maybe there is some problem with ADO (I even tested with the SQLNCLI provider: same bad results) or Vista...
We really need to solve this problem; the number of customers complaining about this behavior on Vista is growing.
NOTE: The LastUpdated column holds date + time info so we can't ignore the time part! I know, I know, bad design...
Thanks for your help.
P.S.:
We have just received another report from a customer that is running SQL Server 2000 on a Windows Server 2003 machine and using two machines (one Vista, one XP) to connect to the database.
Same behavior. Running the sql statement from the XP machine takes 3 to 6 seconds; on the Vista machine takes more than 5 minutes...
Thanks..
J.C.
Sample code:
Dim rsData As adodb.Recordset
Set rsData = New adodb.Recordset
rsData.CursorLocation = adUseClient
rsData.Open "SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER WHERE ( CASE WHEN [LastUpdated] IS NULL THEN NULL ELSE CAST(CONVERT(char(10),[LastUpdated], 112) AS datetime) END > CAST('20070101' AS datetime)) ORDER BY [CustomerID]", mcnMainDatabase, adOpenStatic, adLockReadOnly
rsData.Close

Hey guy's I am trying to develop something on a 64bit Vista machine.
However, the SQL server 2005 import wizard is having a tough time importing my data because this machine does not have IIS.
I tried to install the regular version and it would not let me based on my system.
suggestions?

Trying to set up a syn connection with my ipaq travel companion but
it syncs to sql server instead of to outlook.
If I uninstall sql server 2005, will it be missed by any other processes, etc.
on Vista and have it again do something ugly.
Thanks,
Bob

I have SQL Server 2005 installed on a Vista Home Premium edition machine. I want to open my DTS packages on this machine in order to have a look at them.
I have installed the SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer components on this machine. I have also rebooted after the installation.
However, I still get the message
"SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer components are required to edit DTS packages.
Install the special Web download, "SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components"
to use this feature"
I have previously done this on an XP machine with no problems. Does anyone know if this is an issue and what the possible solution is?

Hi all,My client PC is very slow to connect to all SQL server databases.Other client machines are having no problem at all. I even triedconnecting to my local MSDE database, and the same behavior results.If I try to connect via a .NET application it is also slow.The connection is always made if I wait long enough, but then when I goto query a table it is very slow again, even if I'm only returning onerow from a table with 5 fields.Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?Thanks.

Hi everybody,
I'm newby in SSIS. I have been using DTS in SQL 2000.
Trying to learn how to execute SSIS package from C# code of ASP.NET web server.
Here's my case:
1. SSIS package with simple data transformation from one table to CSV is stored in SQL Server 2005 storage
2. CSV is for simplicity placed in C: .txt
3. I haven't used SSIS configuration files
4. Protection level of package = EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey
5. Executes OK from Bussiness inteligence studio
6. I've created console application with this code:
...
sqlServeruser = "sa"
...
Package package = app.LoadFromSqlServer("Export_vw_TestConsumerPerson", sqlServer, sqlServerUser, sqlServerPassword, null);
DTSExecResult result = package.Execute();
Console.WriteLine("Package Execution results: {0}",result.ToString());
...
7. When I connect through Remote Desktop Connection I successfully execute this console application on SQL server host machine.
8. When I try execution from computer where I develop package and where I successfully executed it from Bussiness inteligence studio I'm geting FAILURE was a result
Connection params for SQL are same in console application and in SSIS project of Bussiness inteligence studio.
Thanks for any hints

Hi
I have a PC running the 64 bit version of vista home premium (will be soon upgrading to ultimate).
On the download page http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/express/bb410792.aspx for SQL Server Express under the section entitled SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 it mentions at the bottom of the page (referred by * & **) that there is a 64 bit install version available for both SQL Server & management Studio.
However, under the section entitled SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services SP2, there is no * or **. As far as I can tell, the Advanced services has Reporting Services as well.
So, what I am wondering is, can I specifically download the 64 bit versions of SQL server express & management studio and as well, download just the reporting services part of Advanced Services?
Kind regards
Ross

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 few DTSX packages on my SQL server 2005. These packages are supposed to transfer data and stored procedures from server to client Express engine. The scenario is that when user connects with the server he should run some kind of utility or any other way to run those SSIS packages so that the data could be transfered.
Remember the user machine has only SQL Express Engine and the packages are in SQL server 2005 machine.
Can any one help me out how to achive this scenario?
Regards...

I have tried this several times and each time get the same result. I even installed Visual Studio 2008 beta 2 - everything but SQL Server Express installed fine. The error I get when running the SQL Server 2005 Express download is (from the log file):

hi there - I'm praying someone here can shed some light on this - after many google and web searches, I have found users with similar issues, but have yet to find a solution.
Problem: I have recently upgraded my desktop from Windows XP to Windows Vista Ultimate (clean install) and have migrated my local machine to SQL Server 2005. However I have a number of .Net projects that access databased on another server running SQL Server 2000 - prior to my upgrade to Vista, I was running SQL Server 2000 on my desktop as well. During the install, everything seemed to go well, and I also installed the SQL Server 2005 Service pack as instructed via the MSDN site. However, when attempting to test my .net projects on my desktop pc (ie visit http://localhost), I encounter the error:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
note that the server I am attempting to connect TO is the old SQL 2000 server - NOT 2005. I specify my connection info in the web.config - and it points to an external ip address on the web.
Can anyone shed some light on this? I've tried enabling remote access on my local SQL 2005 install, but I'm fairly sure thats for servers that want to connect to my desktop, rather than my desktop attempting to connect to external servers. Any help is greatly appreciated - I'm pulling my hair out over trying to figure this out! :)
To summarize my setup (if it helps)
Desktop PC:Windows Vista (Ultimate)SQL Server 2005Visual Studio 2005II 7.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application)
External Server (co-located at a datacenter)Windows Server 2003SQL Server 2000IIS 6.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application)
Much appreciated,
Ted

I have an application written in VB6 that creates a ADO connection using the (native SQL2005 clien)t from the client to SQLServer 2005 on Server 2003 configured as a stand alone server. The application works great on XP and has for a number of years.
Now I am attempting to deploy in Vista and using the same code the connection speed CRAWLS. it's in the magnitude of atleast 10 times slower. It eventualy works but the selects and doing a readnext against the resulting record set is at a snails pace.
What am I missing. It's has to be some sort of configuration problem somewhere.

I am using two almost idential laptops, one with XP and one with Vista, the only differences is that the XP laptop has 1G of RAM and running Office XP and the Vista has 2G RAM and is running Office 2007.
I have a MS Access database that has linked tables to a SQL Server 2000 database. The performance of the Access database on Vista is 5-10 times slower on the Vista machine. Just flipping through records or opening forms can take 5 - 15 seconds on the Vista machine while the XP machine takes 1 sec or less.
What gives? I looked at the CPU performance and the network performance while the Access database was busy flipping through records, the network traffic was < 2% and the CPU would spike to 40% on one of the CPUs (dual core) but would remain under 5% most of the time.
I also previously had Office XP installed on the Vista machine and it had the same performance issue so bought and install Office 2007 on the Vista machine and it did not solve the problem.
It seems that Vista is doing something that is slowing down Access with linked tables. Is this a issue between Vista and using an ODBC connection to SQL Server?
Thanks in advance for any help on this

When I launch Outlook, it takes forever for the program to finally open. With any inbound email, it stops processing whatever is underway at the time....and frequently there is a 2-3 second lag between keyboard input and what appears on the screen.

Hello,
Unit tests in our project make use of cp utility to import data into database. But the performance of running unit tests under XP and Vista differs much. The difference that I was able to notice is in CPU percentage usage: approximately 5% (XP) against 10% (Vista).
What can be the reason for bcp run slower under Vista?

I need to transfer a database from one server to another, I'm using the DTS utility because the servers have different sort orders. our database size is about 5GB which include about 2500 tables. Using DTS is taking many hours to transfer all objects and data. is there a better/faster way to do this?
Any help would be appreciated, Thank you

Help! I am new to SQL (6.5) and am designing a small database on a small LAN.
Everything seems to work fine until more than one user gets in the database.
It was originally an Access database and we upsized some of the information to SQL.
I have not upsized all the tables yet, and am not sure if that is causing a problem.
Since we are new to SQL we are trying to make all the changes in Access then upsize
everything. If this is the problem though, I will not be hesitant in upsizing.
Any ideas?

Since sp2 a number of applications, specifically web ado access has slowed very badly and I seem to be seeing a high cpu usage too. Internal jobs such as backups and table defrags are not affected. I'm on a 4 way box with ample hardware .. stats indexes etc. are fine .. client access is just slow. I suspect mdac but I can't pin anything down and it's driving me crazy !!!!!
I've even built a new box with a fresh install but to no avail.

I'm running the following statements. They have been running for 48 hours and counting... In performance monitor, I can see the system is steadily 100% disc bound. Any idea how to get status or ETA on these? Any idea how I can speed up such actions? This seems unusually slow. There are no errors in the Error Log. Does other DBMS systems (such as Oracle) handle such scenarios more quickly or with better status information?
INSERT INTO Domains (Domain)
SELECT DISTINCT Domain FROM Stages WHERE Domain NOT IN (SELECT Domain FROM Domains)
UPDATE Stages SET DomainID = (SELECT Domains.[ID] FROM Domains WHERE Domains.Domain = Stages.Domain)
Stages is 173 million records
Domains is 2.4 million records
This is running on pretty decent hardware:
Windows 2000 SP5
SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition SP3a
Dual 3.06 GHz Xeons with HyperThreading enabled (4 virtual CPUs)
4GB RAM (OS 3GB switch is enabled to give SQL Server 3GB of RAM)
70GB SCSI boot drive
Data/Transaction Log is on a RAID 5, 30 spindle, fibrechannel SAN

Hi - I have MS SBA2007beta and Office Outlook 2007 BCM Beta. Both use SQL2005 and they are both as slow to point of being frustrating. Outlook2007 without BCM is fine and every other application runs fine if no SQL server apps are present.
I have this running on a 2.8ghz desktop with 1G memory and a Laptop of 1.8ghz and 1.5g memory. The laptop is far faster.
When SQL apps are running everything is slowed.

Hello,
I have the same database on two different servers. One for production and one for testing. A view that I use runs in less than 2 seconds on the test system, but takes almost 2 minutes on the production server.
What I have noticed is on the test server the view will use an index. The production server ends up scanning a whole table. All indices are the same on both machines for the tables involved and I have updated the statistics. I even went through the process of creating a new table with its indices for the table that is being scanned. Both machines have had service pack 1 installed on them.
Any ideas?

Hi
We are facing performance related problem using Sql server 2000.
We have one stand alone P4 Pc (128 ram) and around 30 users access the sql server through network.
We have written our aplication in VB 6 and backend as Sql Server 2000. We have used Stored Procedure where ever necessary. We have used cursor location as Server side.
When we start with 5 users it is not slow, when all the users say 30 comes in it is slow down.
Can some one help to find out what is the problem.
Thanks

I'm still new to SQL Server so some of my lingo/verbage may be incorrect, please bare with me.
The company I work for relies strictly on ASP and SQL Server for 85% of it's daily operations. We have some Access projects and some VB projects as well, but for the majority it's ASP and SQL Server.
Previously we had 2 T1 lines with something like 3MB a piece and a handfull of Dell Servers. Our main server is also a Dell running Windows Server 2003 and is hosted through a reputable company here in town. They have a host of fiber lines running all over so I know we're getting good throughput. We've actually just upgradded to a DS3 but we're still working out the kinks with that. Anyway, I just want to eliminate that up front - we have great connection speeds.
The problems lies, I believe in our database design. The company supposedly had a DBA come in and help setup the design some 3 or 4 years ago, however even with my limited knowledge I feel like something is just not working right.
Our main table is "Invoices" which is obviously all of our Invoices, ever. This table has an Identity field "JobID" which is also the Clustered Index. We have other Indexes as well, but it appears they're just scattered about. The table probably 30-40 fields per row and ONLY 740,000 rows. Tiny in comparison to what I'm told SQL Server can handle.
However, our performance is embarassing. We've just landed a new client who's going to be brining us big business and they're already complaining about the speed of their website. I am just trying to figure out ways to speed things up. SQL is on a dedicated machine I believe with dual Xeon processors and a couple gigs of ram. So that should be ok. THe invoices table I spoke of is constantly accessed by all kinds of operations as it's heart of what we do. We also have other tables such which are joined on this table to make up the reporting we do for clients.
So I guess my question is this. Should the Clustered Index be the identify field and is that causing us problems? We use this field alot for access a single Invoice at a time and from what I understand this makes it a good Clustered Index, because the index IS the jobID we're looking for. But when it comes time to do reporting for a client, we're not looking at this field. We just pull the records for that Clients Number. And we only have 1400 clients at this point. So if we were to make the "ClientID" field the Clustered Index, it would much faster to Zero in on the group of Invoices we wanted because the ClientID is ALWAYS included in our queries.
But because a "DBA" came in to design this setup, everyone is afraid to change it. I guess it's hard to explain without people sitting here going through the code and look at the structures of all our tables - but I guess what I need is like a guide of what to do to easily increase performance on SQL Server and the proper use of Clustered and Non-Clustered Indexs and how to mix and match those.
Sorry I wrote a book.
Ideas? This place has always helped me before, so thanks in advance!

Hi,
I'm executing a stored procedure in my local LAN which executes another one in a loop and I update a Table. The number of loops is about 6300.
This operation takes about 25 seconds in my local LAN.
Then I try to execute though in a VPN which has an upload speed of 256 kbps. I open query analyser connect to the remote server which is must faster than mine and I just write exec mystoredprocname in order to execute the procedure. The performance is very very slow.
In 7 minutes 180 loops are completed out or 6300.
I really cannot understand this. What is the reason of such slow perfomance?? My ADSL model displays no activity when the procedure is executed. I just use the PRINT method in MSSQL in order to display the progress of the operation. I tried to comment it out but with no difference.
I also use SET NOCOUNT ON in order not to display the update results.
Can someone explain me the cause for this? Are there some tricks in order to improve the performance when a slow connection is used like a ADSL with a static IP? It seems that something wrong is happening here.
Best Regards,
Manolis Perrakis

I 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

I have a stored procedure that has some problems with slow performance.The procedure has 2 parameters@firstnamevarchar(100)@lastnamevarchar(100)These parameters can have values like a%, that is wildcard searches.The strange thing is that if one of the parameters has the value %, andthe other one a%, the performance is very bad.If i subsistute the variables with exactly the same values hardcoded inthe where-clause, the query is very fast.If both variables has some characters prepending the percent sign, theperformance is better.SELECT distinct u.user_id, u.username, u.status_idFROM statusnames sn, statuses s, users u, users_persons up, persons p,users_roles urWHERE p.lastname like @lastnameAND p.firstname like @firstnameAND s.status_id = u.status_idAND sn.statusname_id = s.statusname_idAND u.user_id = up.user_idAND up.person_id = p.person_idWhat makes SQL server behave so differently with variables andhardcoded values?

Hi,We have shifted one of our data processing to a new instance of SQL2005. For this a new DB was created in SQL2005 and it is not anupgrade of SQL200 DB.The data processing application is a VB6 application that runs a batchprocess to insert about4.5 million records everyday in this SQL 2005 database. I am usingADO(ver 2.6) Connection object to execute T-SQL insert statements toinsert the 4.5 mill. records.This same application used to insert the data in the SQL 2000databaseand used to take about 2.5 hours to do so. After moving it to SQL2005 the performance has really detriorated and it now takes morethan6 hours.Is there any configuration change that I need to do in SQL 2005?Please help.Note: There is also an instance of SQL 2000 running in the sameserver.TIA,Tawfiq

I was transfering more that 100,000 records from flat file to sql table
It took about 1 hour.Is this the way it is?????i used oledb command.
As the data passes by i got to insert to several table.Like i insert some of incoming data to one table then get the key from that table and insert rest of the data with the key field from previous table to another table.
In this case i felt OLedb would be best as we can use query.
I cannot use oledb destination as it has only error output(to insert some of incoming data and i want to have a look up to get the key but oledb des has only error output)
i cannot use sql destination as the database is sql server 2000.It dosent let me.
How can i increase the performance????Please let me know
