DTS performance issue...

  • 6 to 12 mill records export SQL to SQL

    HD space Fine (75 Gb free)

    Memory 1.7 Gb used by SQL

    No Blockes

    CPU @ 50%  and used by SQL...SQL is working hard at something???

    Network trafic is below 5%

    Nothing else is contending for time on either server

    The problem: Sometimes this DTS package will run in 2-3 hrs and other times days (2). I have not been able to locate what causes this. Any sugestions?

  • What method are you using to move the data? 

  • A transformation task from SQL statement to a table with batch size set at 2000 and always commit set true. All other settings are default.

  • Any indexes set up on the destination table? 

    Do you have transaction logs for the databases?  Is it possible the transaction logs are having to grow several times repeatedly?
