Memory Bottleneck

  • One of our machine is started giving timeout error and IO related error. We have increased the memory size to * GB but sitll getting the same issue. In order to checkt the memory bottleneck, Ihave captured following counters.

    Machine is VM and has 8 GB RAM.

    Can somebody tell me if these counter looks ok

    Cache Data Map Hits 100

    Memory Available bytes 1497823382

    Memory Cache Bytes 111059244

    Memory comimtted Bytes 6573048407

    Memory Page Faults/sec 478

    Memory pages /sec 34

    Memory pool Nonpaged bytes 52465264

    Paging file % usage 2

    As far as I know that all the counters looks good except Memory pages/sec which is 34. I think it should be less then 20 pages per sec. ?

    Any help appreciated.

  • Please check any blockings,CPU and memeory usage in SQL server and find which process is taking high CPU utilization in SQL server

  • You need to look at the queues and wait states counters. That will tell you what is slowing down. From there you can determine what's causing it.
