    Sample column data

    Select 36,'MNOPQRS','TESTING','XXX-XX-XXX','FNAME','LNAME','MNAME',NULL,'ADDRESS1','ADDRESS2','CITY','LP',98765,'XXX-XXX-XXXX',NULL,NULL,'1900-10-11 00:00:00.000','F','M',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'MNOPQRS',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'2010-10-28 00:00:00.000',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'All',NULL,NULL,NULL

    Here Null fileds will be there because i got the file from currect client as null,but some client will give the values filled(not fully but some time they may)

    My problem is i am using :

    Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (RTM) - 10.0.1600.22 (Intel X86)

    Standard Edition on Windows NT 5.2 <X86> (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)

    3 GB RAM

    1 CPU

    As i have given the sample data in my table i am having same type of data of nearly 10,000 records. what happening is when i select on the table table is taking more than 2 min to return the data this is fresh table so no one is accessing except me and only 15-20 tables are there in my db.

    It is fresh db in developement.In the server there is another db with 1.5GB .it will have about 10-20 connections for 1 hour.

    how to resolve this

    i have created table on the data the client has given to me.

    one option is col1 and col2 can be created as unique clustered index i tried that too but but same result it rduce to 1 min 45 sec but there is no other option to reduce this or why it is taking 1.45 min to return only for 10,000 records any idea or Suggestions :hehe: :hehe: :hehe:

  • Much longer than what? Another server? Compare the actual execution plans.

    Do you get different plans? Compare indexes and statistics.

    Which query? Can you post it? Can you post the actual execution plan from both environments?

  • You're really naming all your columns, Col1, col2... Troubleshooting and developing against that should be a lot of fun.

    What kind of query are you trying to run? You don't list any indexes, keys or constraints with the table. If you're simply running queries on a heap (a table without a clustered index) and no other indexes, all you can expect is a table scan.

    To really drill down, you have to show what query you're running, and an execution plan. For detailed help, actual DDL and DML scripts that allow us to replicate what you have would be useful too.

  • Much longer than what? Another server? Compare the actual execution plans.

    I meaned here is, will it take nearly 2 min to return 10,000 records,i am not having any other server to cross verify

    Do you get different plans? Compare indexes and statistics.NO same execution plan i am getting

    Which query? Can you post it? Can you post the actual execution plan from both environments?

    the table structure is what i have posted i am just querying select of the table (Select * from MyTable_name),the attached is the execution plan

    Thanks

  • SELECT * FROM Table

    This query will simply scan the table. So, performance is strictly up to the hardware. How fast are your disks? How fast is your CPU? That's the only metrics you can use for this type of thing. If you're looking to enhance performance, buy bigger hardware. What exactly is this query & table in support of? What are you trying to do?

    The Column name i have kept on my server is correct naming but to hidce my business logic i have renamed and posted here as column 1 ....so nothing wrong in it

    Thanks

    OK, fine, but 65 nullable columns in a table, you're running a SELECT * without a where clause or filters, and you have problem in SQL Server 2008? What's the problem? I'm just confused by what issue you're trying to define here. It's not making any sense.

  • Am I correct that this table does not have a clustered index nor a primary key?

    That seems to be what you're describing.

    If so, that's probably a major part of your problem.

    Actually, based on the picture of the property sheets from an execution plan, it does have a clustered index. It's just doing a scan of it, as you would expect with a query that doesn't have a WHERE clause. It just hasn't been defined here.

  • No i am not saying problem on sql server i am asking how we can reduce the query time to less than 1 min for 10,000 records i have given the table structure and sample string to insert into the table you try and see what time it is taking to return the value

    declare @i int =1

    while @i<=10000

    begin

    -- Insert into table

    Select 36, 'MNOPQRS'+Convert(varchar,@i), 'TESTING','XXX-XX-XXX','FNAME','LNAME','MNAME',NULL,'ADDRESS1','ADDRESS2','CITY','LP',98765,'XXX-XXX-XXXX',NULL,NULL,'1900-10-11 00:00:00.000','F','M',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'MNOPQRS',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'2010-10-28 00:00:00.000',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,'All',NULL,NULL,NULL

    set @i=@i+1

    end

  • The majority of the time taken to run the query is probably taken up in moving that much data across the network for display on the client. From the information provided, it seems that the table contains about 40MB of data. SQL Server is able to read that amount from disk or memory very quickly, but transporting it to the client and actually displaying the results (perhaps in Management Studio?) may take much longer, depending on the speed of your network connection, and the speed of the client computer.

  • To verify that the bottleneck is network/client speed, try running:

    SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table WITH (INDEX(1));

    That will force SQL Server to read every row in the table, but only return one summary row to the client.

    If that query runs very much more quickly, you know that the 'problem' lies outside SQL Server.

    The above gives the output less than 1 sec .Then what it mean here the problem is not with the sql or table you are saying as N/w or connectvity

  • Select * from sys.syscolumns 5 sec and in another server(B) it not even take a sec

    Select * from sys.sysobjects 2 sec and in another server(B) it not even take a sec

    so what is happining here. both are servers located at different place and im querying my server A is located at 1000 miles and another server B is located at about 1200 miles but are connected to WAN/LAN and im connecting at C (my work place )where i am trying to query the table the server B

  • I had the same happening to me several year ago.

    It turned out to be a port malfunction on the switch the server was connected to.
