SQL Server 2012 :: Ways To Improve Record Deletion Speed

Oct 13, 2015

I have a table (F_POLICY_TRANSACTION).This table has a couple of million rows in it.I am using a column named POLICY_TRANSACTION_BKEY to select records to delete (approximately 750k using the code below)This column has a non-clustered index applied..This is the code I have used:

WHILE 1 = 1
BEGIN
DELETE TOP(50000)
FROM F_POLICY_TRANSACTION with (tablockx)

[code]....

Problem is, it takes around 10 minutes to run.Is there any way it can be made more efficient?I have tried varying the rowcount with no success

SQL Server 2008 :: How To Improve Speed Of Initial Query Vice Subsequent Queries

Apr 23, 2015

I have a pretty large DB and a fairly complex query. If I drop buffers and clear cache the query runs in 20 seconds returning 25K rows. Subsequent runs are 2 seconds. Is this the result of the results being cached, execution being cached, other? Are there good ways to close the gap between the initial and later runs? Does the cache stay present until the service restarts or does SQL recycle the memory and if so, based on what criteria?

UPDATE STATISTICS Necessary To Improve Performance (?)

Jul 20, 2005

Dear Sql Server experts:First off, I am no sql server expert :)A few months ago I put a database into a production environment.Recently, It was brought to my attention that a particular query thatexecuted quite quickly in our dev environment was painfully slow inproduction. I analyzed the the plan on the production server (itlooked good), and then tried quite a few tips that I'd gleaned fromreading newsgroups. Nothing worked. Then on a whim I performed anUPDATE STATISTICS on a few of the tables that were being queried. Thequery immediately went from executing in 61 seconds to under 1 second.I checked to make sure that statistics were being "auto updated" andthey were.Why did I need to run UPDATE STATISTICS? Will I need to again?A little more background info:The database started empty, and has grown quite rapidly in the lastfew months. One particular table grows at a rate of about 300,000records per month. I get fast query times due to a few well placedindexes.A quick question:If I add an index, do statistics get automatically updated for thisnew index immediately?Thanks in advance for any help,Felix

need help improve my update PROCEDURE
i have this update PROCEDURE and it work ok but it is problematic
because i have to add all the time a new category 101,102,103,104,105,106 ........................
all the time i have to to rewrite the stored procedure and add new category

so my question is how to improve my update PROCEDURE
like for example create a table index

row_fld fld_index fld_text
---------------------------------------------------
1 101 a
2 101 b
3 101 c

1 102 e
2 102 f
3 102 g

1 103 h
2 103 i
3 103 j

--------------------------------------------------
so at the end i can add to the new table_index new category all the time
or update existing category



Code Snippet

How Do I Speed Up An UPDATE?

Aug 28, 2004

I have a single UPDATE statement that has been running for 13+ hours and I have no idea of when it will complete.

Recipients has 80 million records
UpdatedStagingRecipients has 34 million records.

Why would this possibly take so long? Is there anything that I can do at all?


UPDATE Recipients
SET Recipients.First = UpdatedStagingRecipients.First
, Recipients.Last = UpdatedStagingRecipients.Last
, Recipients.StreetAddress = UpdatedStagingRecipients.StreetAddress
, Recipients.City = UpdatedStagingRecipients.City
, Recipients.State = UpdatedStagingRecipients.State
, Recipients.Postal = UpdatedStagingRecipients.Postal
, Recipients.Country = UpdatedStagingRecipients.Country
, Recipients.DOB = UpdatedStagingRecipients.DOB
, Recipients.Obscene = UpdatedStagingRecipients.Obscene
, Recipients.Gender = UpdatedStagingRecipients.Gender
, Recipients.IPv4 = UpdatedStagingRecipients.IPv4
, Recipients.NameSourceID = UpdatedStagingRecipients.NameSourceID
, Recipients.NameLine = UpdatedStagingRecipients.NameLine
, Recipients.AddressSourceID = UpdatedStagingRecipients.AddressSourceID
, Recipients.AddressLine = UpdatedStagingRecipients.AddressLine
, Recipients.RecordCreationSourceID = UpdatedStagingRecipients.RecordCreationSourceID
FROM Recipients INNER JOIN UpdatedStagingRecipients ON (Recipients.UserName = UpdatedStagingRecipients.UserName AND Recipients.DomainID = UpdatedStagingRecipients.DomainID)

Speed Up Bulk Update

Mar 8, 2006

We are planning to add a new attribute to one of our tables to speed updata access. Once the attribute is added, we will need to populatethat attribute for each of the records in the table.Since the table in question is very large, the update statement istaking a considerable amount of time. From reading through old postsand Books Online, it looks like one of the big things slowing down theupdate is writing to the transaction log.I have found mention to "truncate log on checkpoint" and using "SETROWCOUNT" to limit the number of rows updated at once. Or "dumptransaction databaseName with No_Log".Does anyone have any opinions on these tactics? Please let me know ifyou want more information about the situation in order to provide ananswer!

UPDATE Statement Speed Drop

May 5, 2003

Background:
I have a table (named achtransactions) that has 618,423 rows. I have the ID field set as the Primary Key.

Problem:
Usually when doing a single, simple update (ie: UPDATE achtransactions SET transstatus = 'APPROVED' where id = 123456) it would take less than a second.

All of a sudden, beginning today, the same UPDATE statement is taking about 20 seconds on average. Other smaller tables (~100 rows) update instantly, just appears to be this one table.

Any ideas on what I should look at to find the problem?

Thanks in advance,

SQL UPDATE/INSERT Statement Speed

Apr 21, 2008



Hello,

Server hardware: Intel core 2 duo, 2Gb ram, SATA 1500Gb, SQL Server 2005

I have big table (~ from 50000 to 500000 rows) :



Code Snippet
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[CommonPointValues](
[ID] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[pointID] [bigint] NOT NULL,
[pointValue] [numeric](10, 2) NOT NULL,
[qualityID] [int] NOT NULL,
[dateFrom] [datetime] NULL,
[dateTo] [datetime] NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_PointValues] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[ID] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON, FILLFACTOR = 100) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]




UPDATE statement:



Code SnippetUPDATE dbo.CommonPointValues SET dateTo = @last_update WHERE ID = @lastValID




2000 rows update takes about 1 sec.

INSERT statement:




Code Snippet
INSERT INTO dbo.CommonPointValues (pointID, pointValue, qualityID, dateFrom, dateTo )
VALUES (@point_id, @value_new, @quality_new, @last_update, @last_update )






Speed with INSERT is similar like with UPDATE.

I need about 10000 updates per 1 second and 10000 inserts per 1 second or together 5000 inserts and 5000 updates per 1 sec.

Should I update hardware or try some improvements to table structure.

Update Operation Takes Forever! How Can I Speed It Up?

Jul 20, 2005

I'm having a problem with an update operation in a stored procedure. Itruns so slowly that it is unusable, unless I comment a part out in whichcase it is very fast. However, I need the whole thing :). I have atable of email addresses of people who want to get invited to parties.Each row contains information like email address, city, state, country,and preferences for what types of events are of interest.The primary key is an EMAILID, and has a unique constraint on the emailfield. The stored procedure receives the field data as arguments, andinserts the record if the email address passed is not in the database.This works perfectly. However, if the stored procedure is called for anemail address that already exists, it updates the existing row insteadof doing an insert. This way I can build a web page that lets peoplemodify their preferences, opt in and out of the list and so on.If I am doing an update, the stored procedure runs SUPER SLOW (and thepage times out) unless I comment out the part of the update statementfor city, state, country and zipcode. However, I really need to be ableto update this!My database has 29 million rows.Thank you for telling me anything about how I can speed up this update!Here is the SQL statement to run the stored procedure:declare @now datetime;set @now = GetUTCDate();EXEC usp_EMAIL_Subscribe @Email='dberman@sen.us', @OptOutDate=@now,@Opt_GenInterest=1, @Opt_DatePeople=0, @Opt_NewFriends=1,@Opt_OldFriends=0, @Opt_Business=1, @Opt_Couples=0, @OptOut=0,@Opt_Events=0, @City='Boston', @State='MA', @ZCode='02215',@Country='United States'Here is the stored procedure:SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ONGOSET ANSI_NULLS ONGOALTER PROCEDURE [usp_EMAIL_Subscribe](@Email [varchar](50),@Opt_GenInterest [tinyint],@Opt_DatePeople [tinyint],@Opt_NewFriends [tinyint],@Opt_OldFriends [tinyint],@Opt_Business [tinyint],@Opt_Couples [tinyint],@OptOut [tinyint],@OptOutDate datetime,@Opt_Events [tinyint],@City [varchar](30), @State [varchar](20), @ZCode [varchar](10),@Country [varchar](20))ASBEGINdeclare @EmailID intset @EmailID = NULL-- Get the EmailID matching the provided email addressset @EmailID = (select EmailID from v_SENWEB_EMAIL_SUBSCRIBERS whereEmailAddress = @Email)-- If the address is new, insert the address and settings.

Improve My SQL

Mar 9, 2008

I have the following SQL, which works but I think it can be done simplier. I seem to have to group it by multiple columns, but I am sure there must be a way of grouping the results by a single column. Any Ideas?

Code:


SELECT count(order_items.order_id) as treenum, orders.order_id, orders.order_date,
orders.cust_order, orders.del_date, orders.confirmed, orders.del_addr
FROM orders, order_items
WHERE orders.order_id = order_items.order_id GROUP by orders.order_id, orders.order_date
, orders.cust_order, orders.del_date, orders.confirmed, orders.del_addr
ORDER BY orders.order_id DESC

How To Improve This Transaction

1. T2.TextField1 and TextField2 = @TextField2 are Ok, Nok fields so I did not put index since only two distinct values. Should I put indexes on these fields?
 
2. Can I make this transaction let user interface do its task in case accessing the same rows, I can start transaction again but I do not want users get disturbed?

Improve This Function

Nov 30, 2005

I wrote the following function a few years ago - before I learned about SQL's PATINDEX function. It might be possible to check for a valid email address syntax with a single PATINDEX string which could replace the entire body of hte function below.

Is anyone is interested in taking a crack at it?

Signed... lazy Sam

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.EmailIsValid (@Email varchar (100))
/*
RETURN 1 if @Email contains a valid email address syntax, ELSE RETURN 0
*/

RETURNS BIT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @atpos int, @dotpos int

SET @Email = LTRIM(RTRIM(IsNull(@Email, ''))) -- remove leading and trailing blanks

IF LEN(@Email) = 0 RETURN(0) -- nothing to validate

SET @atpos = charindex('@',@Email) -- position of first (hopefully only) @

IF @atpos <= 1 OR @atpos = LEN(@Email) RETURN(0) -- @ is neither 1st or last or missing

IF CHARINDEX('@', @email, @atpos+1) > 0 RETURN(0) -- Two @s are illegal

IF CHARINDEX(' ',@Email) > 0 RETURN(0) -- Embedded blanks are illegal

SET @dotpos = CHARINDEX('.',REVERSE(@Email)) -- location (from rear) of last dot

IF (@dotpos < 3) or (@dotpos > 4) or (LEN(@Email) - @dotpos) < @atpos RETURN (0) -- dot / 2 or 3 char, after @

RETURN(1) -- Whew !!

How Can I Improve My SQL Query

Aug 21, 2007

Hi,


I have this SQL query that can take too long time, up to 1 minute if table contains over 1 million rows. And if the system is very active while executing this query it can cause more delays I guess.


select
distinct 'CONV 1' as Conveyour,
info as Error,
(select top 1 substring(timecreated, 0, 7) from log b where a.info = b.info order by timecreated asc) as Date,
(select count(*) from log b where b.info = a.info) as 'Times occured'
from log a where loggroup = 'CSCNV' and logtype = 4


The table name is LOG, and I retrieve 4 columns: Conveyour, Error, Date and Times occured. The point of the subqueries is to count all distinct post and to retrieve the date of the first time the pst was logged. Also, a first and last date could be specified but is left out here.


Does anyone knows how I can improve this SQL query?

Using SQL Profiler To Improve Performance

Mar 8, 2004

Hi,
We have a poorly performing SQL 2000 db. i have just defragged ( the HD, not indexes, these are done daily via SQL Agent) the data files of our server and have not found any improvement in response.
I have now got into using SQL profiler to analyse the server performance. in the results that the trace is returning there are some huge (REALLY BIG) values for the duration and cpu values but these rows have no textdata value returned (ie it is null)

why is this? for these rows, the reads and writes columns are also high.

if these rows are what is taking the cpu's time then how can i identify what the server is doing to make any changes?

any thoughts on what other values i might trace or what action i can take to find the slow down cause?

in performance manager the processors (dual Xeons) are rarely dropping below 60%.


thanks in advance

Performance And Database Improve Help

Jan 15, 2008

Hi All,

from your experience in SQL 2005 - do i have any free software that can help in improve performance or can help in identifying performance bottleneck. two examples of performance and help that i use usually use are the maintenance plan that do (check DB > reorganized index > rebuild index > update statics) and the second software is the SQL 2005 DASHBOARD for the reporting help.
do you have any other free tools and help that you can give me for performance or any thing that i must have in my SQL 2005 servers.

Thx

How To Improve Performance In This Query?

Jul 20, 2005

Hey guys,Here's my situation:I have a table called lets say 'Tree', as illustred bellow:Tree====TreeId (integer)(identity) not nullL1(integer)L2(integer)L3(integer)....L10(integer)The combination of the values of L1 thru L10 is called a "Path" , andL1 thru L10 values are stored in a second table lets say called'Leaf':Leaf====LeafId (integer)(identity) not nullLeatText varchar(2000)Here's my problem:I need to lookup for a given keyword in each path of the tree table,and return each individual column for the paths that match thecriteria. Here's the main idea of how I have this now.SELECT TreeId,L1,L2,...,L10, GetText(L1) + GetText(L2) as L2text + ...+ GetText(L10) AS PathTextINTO #tmp FROM Tree //GetText is a lookup function for the Leaf tableSELECT L1,GetText(L1),L2,GetText(L2),...,L10,GetText(L10) FROM #tmpWHERECharIndex(@keyword,a.pathtext) > 0Does anyone would know a better,smart, more efficient way toaccomplish this task? :)Thks,

Improve The Performance Of This Query...

Dec 14, 2007

SQL Experts,

I'm facing a performance issue with the following query...
The Output of the following Query is 184 Records and it takes 2 to 3 secs to execute the query.


SELECT DISTINCT Column1 FROM Table1 (NOLOCK) WHERE Column1 NOT IN

(SELECT T1.Column1 FROM Table1 T1(NOLOCK) JOIN Table2 T2 (NOLOCK)

ON T2.Column2 = T1.Column2 WHERE T2.Column3= <Value>)


Data Info.

No of records in Table1 --> 1377366

No. of distinct records of Column1 in Table1 --> 33240


Is there any way the above query can be rewritten to improve the performance, which should take less than 1 sec...
(I'm using DISTINCT because there are Duplicate records of Column1 inTable1 )

Any of your help in this regard will be greately appreciated.

Improve VFP Source Performance

Nov 5, 2007


I am not an expert in either SSIS or VFP technology but know enough to get my way round. One anomaly I did discover I thought was worth sharing for all those concerned with getting large amounts of data out of VFP in as short a time as possible. When you search for performance tips in relation to SSIS the advice is to never use select table or view from data access mode list in ole db source as this effectively translates to select * from table and I've never come across anything to contradict this €“ well I am and let me explain why:

When you use SQL command as data access mode in ole db source (where ole db source is foxpro dbc) and you write out select column1, column 2 etc etc from table a etc etc and then connect that to a destination (in my case ole db destination) the SSIS task spends ages stuck on Pre-execute before anything happens (the bigger the fox tbl the longer the wait). What is happening behind scenes is that the foxpro engine (assuming its foxpro engine and not sql engine €“ either way don€™t think it matters too much) is executing the sql command and then writing results to a tmp (temp) file on your local temp folder €“ (in my case : C:Documents and SettingsautologinLocal SettingsTemp1). These files take up gigs of space and it is only when this process is complete does the SSIS task actually finish the Pre-execute and start the data transfer process. I couldn€™t understand a) why my packages were stuck on pre-execute for such long times? and b) why were the tmp files being created and why they were soo big?

If you change from SQL command in source to Table or view and then select your table from list the SSIS task when executed kicks off immediately and doesn€™t get stuck on pre-execute nor create any tmp files €“ so you save time and disk space. The difference in time is immense and if like me you were really frustrated with poor performance when extracting from VFP now you know why.

Btw maybe this does not apply to all versions of VFP but it certainly does to v7.

How To Improve The Efficience Of Sql Query ?

Nov 8, 2006

now i want to get results from server tables, but i found it is very slow, for example :

select Coalesce(T1.Name, T2.Name, T3.Name), T1.M1, T2.M2, T3.M3

from T1

full outer join T2

on Coalesce(T1.Name, NULL) = T2.Name

full outer join T3

on Coalesce(T1.Name, T2.Name) = T3.Name

in Tables i have builded index for name, but when every table have 20000 records, the sql above is very slow, is there other method to improve the query speed ?

Query Help To Improve Performance

Jan 2, 2008



Hi,
I have database D1 which contains 5 million users and one more database D2 having 95k Users.
i wanted to insert common users into new database D3 based on filter which is Phone number and is unique value. Below is the structure of my tables in D1 and D2:

D1(database)
UserProfiles(Table)
UserId (Column Name)
UserProfiledata (Column Name)


D2 (database)
Alerts (Table)
PhoneNumbers (ColumnName - Unique)


Now userProfiles table contains data in string format as below:
User.state AA User.City CC User.Pin 1234 User.phonenumber 987654

so iam parsing for each user using cursor and writing phone numbers into some temp table and wanted to query D2 database to verify whether this phone number exists in Alerts Table of D2 database.

can anyone please suggest on how i can go ahead with this and also help me on how to improve perfomance.

Thanks,
-Veera
