Is any way we can tell sql server to keep specific (long runing) query in procedure Cache.
I already tried to do this by creating job (run every 1 hr from 8 am to 6 pm)
but is not enough
Thanks
Is there a way to drop clean buffers at the database level instead of the server/instance level like the undocumented €œDBCC FLUSHPROCINDB (@dbid)€??
Is there a workaround for €œdbo€? to be able to flush procedure and data cache without being elevated to €œsysadmin€? server role?
PS: I am aware of the sp_recompile option that can be used to invalidate cached execution plans.
Thx.
Is there anyway to clear the procedure cache of a single procedure?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI know this might be a dumb one, but what the heck. My new 7.0 server's procedure cache
stays at 100%. After researching this looks like what I want. Nay response appreciated.
Ours is a MSSQL Server Client server application with very minimal usage of Store procedures.
The proc cache is configured at 5%.I execute "dbcc proccache" to keep track of the proc cache.
I have seen that the "proc cache size" reduces to a very small a amount when there is peak usage.
It starts at 42,000 and comes down to 400, though it is always greater than "proc cache used".
I am worried if this causes crashes.
Please advise why this happens and solutions if any.
Thanks in advance,

Hello folks!
We are going to install SQL server 6.5 with MSMQ.
And set 128M memory for SQL Server.
What % Procedure cach do you recomend to set?
Thanks,
Alona
Hi Everybody!
In the application I have, database interaction is mainly through stored procedures.
Currently the setting for procedure cache is 30%. Does anyone have experience with having had changed this and effect on performance?
Thanks!

I have installed a SQL Server diagnose tool for evaluation. It prompts and warns me that "Procedure Cache hit rate is for example 15%. Its help indicates:
The Procedure Cache Hit Rate alarm is raised when the ratio between the number of times SQL Server looks for a plan in the procedure cache and the number of times it does not find a required plan in the procedure cache falls below a threshold.
A low procedure cache hit rate indicates that SQL Server is finding fewer of the query execution plans it needs already in memory and therefore has to perform more compiles. These extra compilations will degrade SQL Server performance by causing extra CPU load.
What can I do to increase the rate?

Is there a way to increase the size of the procedure cache. Or is it only a auto configuring option.
I have 2gb of memory, and when I check the size of the procedure cache it is just 10mb. I would like to increase this to around 50mb. Not sure if there is an setting to do this. Had a look on BOL could not find anything.
thanks

I'm putting together some monitor scripts, have buffer cache ratio etc etc but struggling to get an accurate script for the current procedure cache hit ratio...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a 32 bit SQL 2005 EE clustered installation with 10GB of physical memory and AWE enabled. Our monitoring tool, Spotlight, is reporting the Procedure Cache to be 384MB and a Hit Rate of 75% on a fairly regular basis. Sometimes the Procedure Cache increases to 495MB and a Hit Rate of 82%.
(1) With 2005 can the Procedure Cache be increased?
(2) What is the max size of Procedure Cache?
(3) How do I increase the Hit Rate to a higher percentage?
I do not encounter the issue on any other SQL Server installation, however this is our only cluster.

Using SQL Server 2000. When does SQL flush or clear the procedurecache? I am dynamically creating and dropping stored procedures (SP).Does SQL clear the cache for the SP that has been dropped? If not,when the SP is recreated (with the same name), does SQL use theexecution plan from cache?Thank you in advance.Jack
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy server (SQL 2005 SP2) typically runs with a procedure cache usage of about 92% or higher... lately it seems like at some point in time during the day it just drops to anywhere between 50% and 65%... with this comes horrible server performance and many snowball effects. If I clear the procedure cache it will go up only about 10% for a minute or two. The only way I can get it to recover completely seems to be restarting the SQL service. Then it will be fine till the next incident. The database is a read only (not set to read only but no updates other than replication). and the same SPs are run over and over and over throughout the day. also did notice that the compiles of the SPs goes up drastically at this point also. not sure if this is part of the cause or part of the effect.
CPU is normal. response from anything (even sp_who) is slow.
i do not understand the way procedure cache works completely so I thought I would ask for some direction.
Any ideas where to look or where to start???
Any thing I can do to catch this when it happens would be great.
thanks a head of time.

from BOL:

i'm seeing this behavior after log restores as well.
what's the reason the whole procedure cache is flushed?

Does SQL Server have a query cache similar to mysql, whereas the queryresult is cached, if the table has not been changed?If so, please refer me to more info.Thanks.--http://www.dbForumz.com/ This article was posted by author's requestArticles individually checked for conformance to usenet standardsTopic URL: http://www.dbForumz.com/General-Dis...pict170423.htmlVisit Topic URL to contact author (reg. req'd).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if SQL Cache Dependency would be in fact invalidated if:
1. it was created based on a procedure type command.
2. if the select statement retrieves the data from multiple database tables
Any help would be more appreciated. I am stuck with the fact that none of the data bases on sql dependency is invalidated. I spent literally hours to understand what i am doing incorrectly.

We see the following message in our error log.
WARNING: Clearing procedure cache to free contiguous memory.
It is accomonpanied by fairly intensive CPU activity.
We get this roughly once per working day.
Anyone have any idea why, and what we can do to stop this?

I want to analyze procedure cache, to find inefficient plans and parameter issues.
I do it trow DMV But my requests to DMV are very slow and demand resources because procedure cache is about several GB Actually I dont need on-line analysis.
Is it possible to have fast snapshot of procedure cache?
Is there a clean way to flush the query cache so I can simulate the first execution of an SQL statement any time I want to?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
During a trace in profiler, I see some lines that indicate :
exec sp_execute 12
Or
exec sp_execute 24
I suppose these are query in cache and are recall by query processor ? If yes, how can I see this query in clear text ?
Thanks for help
Hello,
I need to disable query cache in MS SQL Server 2005 Express. How can i do it?
My application can opertate ~2K records per sec (INSERT).
A million records costa me extra 142 Mb of RAM.
It means that sql server will take exrta 1Gb of RAM every hour.
I can't afford that.
Can anyone please help me?
Hi guys,
I am looking at the plan caches/cached pages from the perspective of
sys.dm_os_memory_cache_counters and sql serverlan Cache - Cache Pages
For the first one I am using
select (sum(single_pages_kb) + sum(multi_pages_kb) )
from sys.dm_os_memory_cache_counters
where type = 'CACHESTORE_SQLCP' or type = 'CACHESTORE_OBJCP'
a slight change from a query in
http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlprogrammability/
For the second just perfmon.
The first one gives me a count of about 670,000 pages only for the object and query cache and the second one gives me a total of about 100,000 pages for five type of caches including object and query.
If I am using the query from http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlprogrammability/ to determin the plan cache size
select (sum(single_pages_kb) + sum(multi_pages_kb) ) * 8 / (1024.0 * 1024.0) as plan_cache_in_GB
from sys.dm_os_memory_cache_counters
where type = 'CACHESTORE_SQLCP' or type = 'CACHESTORE_OBJCP'
it gives me about 5 GB when in fact my SQL Server it can access only max 2GB with Total and Target Server Memory at about 1.5 GB.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on?
The plan cache is cleared automatically (every 30-60 seconds) on our high load OLPT server.
Can't find a reason for it. I have been logging procedure cache thru dm_exec_cached_plans, every second for a couple of minutes.
It shows that it doesn't grow beyond 200Mb. SQLserver has 64Gb available.
DBCC FREEPROCCACHE is not executed.
dm_os_memory_clerks shows the same 200Mb max (approximately).
I disabled the SQL Agent, still happens, so it's not a job causing the problem.
I disabled the Resource Governor, still the same problem.
Hi everyone,
I posted a related thread before about this error below when I process a dimension. And seems that the solution by using "ClearCache" can not fingure out the issue when I want to process a mining structure...... .
OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC error: There is not enough procedure cache to run this procedure, trigger, or SQL batch. Retry later, or ask your SA to reconfigure SQL Server with more procedure cache.
; Sort failed because there is insufficient procedure cache for the configured number of sort buffers. Please retry the query after configuring lesser number of sort buffers.
Could someone please give me some suggestions?
Your help will be very appreciated:-)
Thanks^_^

HI
May I know how to clear the cache area in the analyser as I need to
know the time taken for execution of an sql statement(query) before
and after creation of indexes.

All the recommendations I see from Microsoft docs is to limit the use of Query Notifications (QNs) to notifying connected clients when changes to mostly-static reference or configuration data occur, and to keep the number of overall query forms in play and connected clients to a minimum. Any way regarding a more integral use of QNs and Service Broker from a web app to notify n-web servers (farm) of an update to data that could be updated concurrently and quite frequently, or with a system where the technique is used extensively with lots of different query forms?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've a spatial (GIS) Data which is used frequently insertion, updation.
5 lakh records insertion in daily basis. when I trying to generate reports last 3 days or one weak, it takes 20-30 minute.
very disappointing while playing with clients. how to boostup and perform fast.
I think as so once we set query plan in buffer permanently then i would be faster than ever.
I am using SQL Server 2012 Express.
I am doing performance tuning of SP/Query in Dev-Test environment.
I found that SQL Server caches plan between successive executions.
So if I test/execute SP 10 times, after 1st or 2nd execution, SQL server will pull-up plan-info from CACHE...Not from SQL SERVER Or Database...
Means i am not getting correct answer...
I found this 2 commands:
DBCC FREEPROCCACHE
DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS
But they say that executing above command might interfere/bother other people executing other query/sp on this server.
They also say that: Freeing the plan cache causes, for example, a stored procedure to be recompiled instead of reused from the cache. This can cause a sudden, temporary decrease in query performance.
Part of query was using Dynamic-SQL executed with EXEC command.
I replaced that with SP_EXECUTESQL.
How can I start testing of each SP-run with Fresh/Blank CACHE ?
I'm getting an alert which states that both my Buffer Cache Hit Ratio and PLE are low on one of my SQL Servers though I'm not sure how to correctly check this.
I ran:
SELECT object_name, counter_name, cntr_value
FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters
WHERE [object_name] LIKE '%Buffer Manager%'
AND [counter_name] = 'Buffer cache hit ratio'
Which gives me the Buffer Cache Hit Ratio, cntr_Value of 9 though its constantly dipping between 3-3000 and is never steady and I'm unsure if this is normal.
I also ran:
SELECT object_name, counter_name, cntr_value
FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters
WHERE [object_name] LIKE '%Buffer Manager%'
AND [counter_name] = 'Page life expectancy'
Which gives me the Page life expectancy of 209061.
If these values would cause concern and if this is a normal Buffer Cache Hit Ratio? It's constantly dropping from high or low from what I can see. These scripts were pulled from another forum and I'm assuming they're showing the correct values.
I am using a lookup component in a SSIS data flow. The lookup is a select to a foxpro table. THe lookup works fine with full cache selected. I cannot get the lookup to work with a partial or no cache. I have the latest Foxpro OLE DB driver installed which I understand to support paramaterized queries. Has anyone had success with using cached lookup to Foxpro? Does anyone know how to set the lookup properties of sqlcommand and sqlcommandparam? I am unable to find any examples in BOL or on the web.
Here are some details. IF I go with "use a table or a view" option with the default cache query I get initialization errors
[lkp_lab_worst_value [6170]] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "Command contains unrecognized phrase/keyword.".
In the advanced editor I see
SQLCommand set to
"select * from `kcf`"
and SQLCommandParam set to
"select * from
(select * from `kcf`) as refTable
where [refTable].[patkey] = ? and [refTable].[dayof_stay] = ? and [refTable].[modifier] = ? and [refTable].[kcf_code] = ? and [refTable].[source] = ? and [refTable].[kcf_time] = ?"
I believe the above error is because Foxpro V7 does not support the inner subselect . In addition the query contains CRLF without a continuation character (";").
If I remove the CRLF in the sqlcommandparam query, using the advanced editor, I get this design time error "OLE D error occurred while loading column metadata. Check the sqlcommand and sqlcommandparam properties". The designer requires both properties to be set, its unclear to me how the interact.
I cannot find any examples in BOL or on the web on how to set these 2 properties. Can someone give me a few guidelines?
I can get past the design errors by changing sqlcommandparam to a plain select that is VFP 7 compatible ( I removed the subselect and the square brackets):
select * from kcf as refTable where refTable.patkey = ? and refTable.dayof_stay = ? and refTable.modifier = ? and refTable.kcf_code = ? and refTable.source = ? and refTable.kcf_time = ?
But then I get a runtime error
