I know with SQL cursors have been cursed with being slow, i'm wondering what is the best alternative, is it still this one:
http://www.sql-server-performance.com/dp_no_cursors.asp
or has someone thought of anything else...
I just wanna know a simple alternative in general i know it matter which application but im curious in general...
or should a temp table be used...?
I have a sub procedure that gets call about 2M times. It's taking nearly 20 minutes to complete. If I remark out the following sub, the job runs in about 2 minutes. I tried remarking just the INSERT INTO, but that didn't make a difference, so it's not that, it's the damn FETCH, and a bit of the SET statement just prior to it. Any ideas what I can do to speed it up?
Thanks,
Carl

Is there a way to speed up this query using two cursors? I need the result set from the history cursor to change on each pass of the loop. I tried to just open and close the cursor each loop but it didn't work so I delclared it and dealocated each loop, which works but at a very slow pace. Is there a command to refresh the result set? or a way to do this as a batch?

I have linked three SQL Servers together, and have written a stored proc that has a cursor that joined three tables from one of the linked servers. When I pull the SQL out of the cursor definition and run it in a query window it runs fine, but when I run the stored proc that simply steps through the same select result set it is too slow for words. It also throws a warning about serial isolation levels. Is there any way I can fix this.

Is there any way to speed things up? I mean, its been running for more than 45 minutes now. I can track the progress, and it does move forward, BUT yawn its slow.
Its even run on a dual xeon 3.2 server with 4 gigs of memory, only other acticity is a few simple selects on other databases. No locks or anything.
Whats amiss? or is the comparison between char fields just dreadded?
Hi all,
I got a problem. I am working on DTS package. The last step is updating a table field. I wrote a stored procedure as below:

so async cursor population is supposed to create the cursor and return the cursor id quickly, while the server works on async populating the results. For a keyset-driven cursor, SQL Server stores the key sets in tempdb, which it then uses to fetch data for cursor results. Anyway, this works fine for smaller tables, but I'm finding for large result sets, the async cursor population is very slow and indeed seems to approximate synchronous time. The wait stat I get while it is running (supposedly asynchronously) is TRANSACTION_MUTEX.
Example:
--enable async cursor
exec dbo.sp_configure 'cursor threshold', 0; reconfigure;
declare @cursor int, @stmt nvarchar(max), @scrollopt int, @ccopt int, @rowcount int;
--example of giant result set
set @stmt = 'select * from sys.all_objects o1, sys.all_objects o1';
[code]...
Note that using the SQL "select * from sys.all_objects o1" is much faster than "select * from sys.all_objects o1, sys.all_objects o2". However, if cursor population is async, I'd expect the time to return a cursor id to be similar between the two.
In MSDN file I read about static cursor
STATIC
Defines a cursor that makes a temporary copy of the data to be used by the cursor. All requests to the cursor are answered from this temporary table in
tempdb; therefore, modifications made to base tables are not reflected in the data returned by fetches made to this cursor, and this cursor does not allow modifications
It say's that modifications is not allowed in the static cursor. I have a questions regarding that
Static Cursor

 open ll
            fetch from ll
Â
             while @@FETCH_STATUS=0

In "AG" table, "SALARY" was 100 for all the entries. When I run the Cursor, it showed the salary value as "100" correctly.After the cursor was closed, I run the query select * from AG.But the result had updated to salary 200 as given in the cursor. file says modifications is not allowed in the static cursor.But I am able to update the data using static cursor.
Hello,I have a test database with table A containing 10,000 rows and a tableB containing 100,000 rows. Rows in B are "children" of rows in A -each row in A has 10 related rows in B (ie. B has a foreign key to A).Using ODBC I am executing the following loop 10,000 times, expressedbelow in pseudo-code:"select * from A order by a_pk option (fast 1)""fetch from A result set""select * from B where where fk_to_a = 'xxx' order by b_pk option(fast 1)""fetch from B result set" repeated 10 timesIn the above psueod-code 'xxx' is the primary key of the current Arow. NOTE: it is not a mistake that we are repeatedly doing the Aquery and retrieving only the first row.When the queries use fast-forward-only cursors this takes about 2.5minutes. When the queries use dynamic cursors this takes about 1 hour.Does anyone know why the dynamic cursor is killing performance?Because of the SQL Server ODBC driver it is not possible to havenested/multiple fast-forward-only cursors, hence I need to exploreother alternatives.I can only assume that a different query plan is getting constructedfor the dynamic cursor case versus the fast forward only cursor, but Ihave no way of finding out what that query plan is.All help appreciated.Kevin

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am writing a data access web page, but I find that the excution speed is too slow.
My data base is just a data table which have five columns: id, code, quantity, price and Date. The data base has about 45000 rows. When I use OSQL or Query function, speed is just fine.
Here is the main code which I think cause the speed slow:
string conn = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["connectionstring"];
SqlDataAdapter adapter_2 = new SqlDataAdapter("select * from table",conn);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
adapter_2.Fill (ds,"table");
DataTable YahooOrders = ds.Tables["YahooOrders"];
DataRow[] product = new DataRow[20000];
.......
foreach (string s in split) // actually the split here has only one string in it
{
product = table.Select ("code like '"+s+"%' and Date >='"+minDate+"' and Date <='"+table.Select("Date = Max(Date)")[0][1].ToString()+"'");
foreach(DataRow myRow in product)
{
int count = Convert.ToInt32(myRow[2]);
itemQuantity = count + itemQuantity;
revenue = Convert.ToDouble(myRow[3]) * count + revenue;
// get product code, ignore repeated code
int myIndex=code.BinarySearch( myRow[1] );
if ( myIndex < 0 )
code.Add(myRow[1]);
}
orderQuantity = product.Length + orderQuantity;
}
The first foreach actually excutes just one time, so it won' t cause any speed problem.
The second foreach' s job is to sum each column of specified rows which is product here.
So, any ideas about this?
Thanks!
All,
Actually from the application the developers are using count(column) to know the no. of rows resulted by a statement which joins many tables but its taking lot of time.
Is there an easy way to get the count of records(result set) of the output.
I cant use sysindexes b'z i need the count of the output genereted by the SQl Statement which joins many tables and retrieves many rows.

Hi fellas (and girllas),
Got a problem (duh!). My MSSQL Server lags. Now, mind, it doesn't lag all the time. And it seems to be independent of the # of users trying to access the server. And it random clears itself up. And the problem doesn't present itself in SQL MGR, just on the web app we're running on it.
Setup:
SQL Server 2k running on 2k3 w/ IIS & backup exec.
All SQL data files are on a raid5 SCSI U160.
App:
Intranet App developed by us for us. ASP.NET & VB.NET.
Symptoms:
When queried server takes a LONG time to respond. So long infact it has become counter productive. When taking a look at the server, the CPU usage hovers between 50-75% and spikes up to 90% every now and then just for kicks. The memory usage is 2.35gb out of 4gb. To fix this we have to kill and restart all the SQL services.
Any thoughts on what to look at? There're indexes on the required FKs and the heavily queried columns. We're at a loss here.
Thanks for any helpful help!
=Me!
Database has its few HUGE tables, but I experienced queries against few other very small tables to be incredible slow.
Anybody has the same or similar problem?
A vendor's application is performing slow. Vendor tested it in QA and it's slow. End-users run it in PRD and it's slow. The application calls SP1, and SP1 calls SP2. Inside SP1 has a cursor. I believe as the db gets larger. The application is going to be even slower. What can I suggest to the vendor in order to fix it? Tell them to re-write the application code? Eliminate cursor?
Thanks

Both systems are relitively quick boxes and neither of themare tapped out on processor, disk I/O or network resources.I do have the "Boost SQL Server priority on Windows" checked under it'sproperties and all the processors are checked to be used.Does anyone know if there's a way to tweak SQL Server or Ingres to handlethis a little quicker? Or even an idea where the bottleneck could be may behelpful.Thanks,John.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a performance question about a clr tvf that I have created. When I query the function it takes about 30 seconds for it to execute as apposed to < 6 seconds when I execute the same code in a console app (the 6 seconds includes outputting the returned data to the console, without writing the output to console it executes in about 1 second). Both the function and the app are iterating (>40,000) and returning ( >10,000) the same number of rows. I've noticed the following when viewing the executions in the PerfMon:
* the sqlclr tfv kicks the % Processor Time up to 30 for 30 seconds, the console app has % Processor Time at 9 for about 2 seconds
* .NET CLR Memory - Allocated Bytes/sec spikes anywhere from 1 to 3 times during the sqlclr query at about 44MB/sec. It barely registers if at all when the console app runs.
* In either case, % Time in GC is at zero.
I'm assuming that there are some configurations I'm ignorant of that can help me tune the execution. I can't imagine that it takes SqlServer that long just to iterate through the records.
I have recently decided to make the change from Microsoft access to SQL Server believing that it's a bigger faster beast with better parameterized queries and triggers and all that. BUT.I have some client data that I imported from their original paradox files.The invoice lineitem file contains over 1 milliion records.When I open this table in access and click show last record, the record is displayed in about 1 or 2 seconds.I used the upsize to SQL Server tool in Access to shift my data into SQL Server.When I use the Express Mangagement tool to open the same table and say show me the last record, it takes 17 minutes.I admit that most numeric data types have been translated to floats, so that's probably not good.But I cant alter them from floats to numeric or decimals using the table design tool.Do the conversion anomalies make up the whole reason why SQL Server seems so incredibly SLOW! ?????????

I've got a SQL Server 2000 stored procedure that returns data to be used in a crystal report in Visual Studio 2005. Most of the stored procedure works well, but there is a point where I need to calculate an average number of days been a group of date pairs.
I'm not familiar with cursors, but I think that I will need to use one to achieve the result I am looking for so I came up with the code below which is a snippet from my stored procedure. In this part of the code, the sp looks at the temporary table #lmreport (which holds all of the data that is returned at the end to crystal) and for every row in the table where the terrid is 'T' (the territory is domestic), it selects all of those territories from the territory table and loops through them to determine the date averages (by calling a nested stored procedure, also included below) for each territory and then updates #lmreport with that data.
When I try to run the stored procedure, I get "The column prefix '#lmreport' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query." on the line indicated.
Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong or if this will even work the way I need it to?
Thank you in advance.

Here is some code from the stored proc. Can someone tell me what is going on here. I haveleft out some of the sql, but have isolated the Cursor stuff.
Open MarketCursor -- How is MarketCursor loaded with data ?
FETCH NEXT
FROM MarketCursorINTO ItemID, @Item, @Reguest
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0BEGIN
DEALLOCATE MarketCursor
I have something like
update table
set field = ...
where field = ...
and for each entry that was effected by this query I want to insert an entry into another table.
I have always done this with cursors is there a more effecient way? For some reason cursors run a lot slower on my sql2005 server than the sql2000 server...

I am trying to define a cursor as follows:
DECLARE EmployeeList CURSOR FOR dbo.GetRecord(@EmployeeID,@CurrentDate)Can't I use a UDF in the CURSOR FOR ?Help please.thank you.
Hello, I'm trying to construct a cursor that will sequentually increment a number and then update a column with the incremented number. My propblem is that all the rows in the table are being updated with the base number +1. So all rows are updated with 278301. BUT, what I really want is for only the items with adrscode of 'bill to' to be given an incremented number.
For example, if there are only five rows of 100 with an adrscode = 'bill to' then only five rows will be updated and the value of the custnmbr should be, 278301, 278302, 278303 .....
I could really use some help with this cursor:
Declare @CustomerName as char (60), @seqno as int, @BaseSeqno as intset @Baseseqno = 278300
declare c cursor for select custnmbr from NXOFcustomers Where adrscode = 'BILL TO' order by custnmbropen cfetch next from c into @CustomerNamewhile @@fetch_status=0begin set @seqno = @BaseSeqno + 1
update NXOFcustomers set custnmbr = @seqnoWhere custnmbr = @CustomerName fetch next from c into @CustomerNameend close cdeallocate c
I have a cursor defined as follows
Declare c_cursor Cursor
Scroll For Select card_id From cardcreator where card_every_cat = @cat_id
Open c_cursor
/* Scroll to the randomly selected row and populate into output parameters */
Fetch absolute @iRandomRecord From c_cursor Into @vi_cardid1
print @vi_cardid1
/*Need to check to fetch status if you have reached end of record set begin from first */
select @@fetch_status
if (@@fetch_status = 0)
Begin
Fetch next from c_cursor into @vi_cardid2
print @vi_cardid2
End
if (@@fetch_status = 0)
Begin
Fetch next from c_cursor into @vi_cardid3
End
print @vi_cardid3
/* Close and deallocate cursor */
Close c_cursor
Deallocate c_cursor
I need to have atleast three records. But if random value starts the cursor at the end, the cursor would not wrap to the beginning.
Is there a way to wrap the cursor to begining if its status is not zero.
Are the cursors declared and opened in stored procedures are always the server cursors?
