We just installed SQL Server version 800.194 on a dual processor
server equipped with a gigabyte of RAM, running Windows 2000 Server
operating system. We set up a few databases with (so far) very tiny
tables.
When I am working locally (i.e. on the server itself) with Query
Analyzer, even the simplest operation is incredibly slow. If I bring
up Windows Task Manager looking at the Processes pane (Query Analyzer
shows up as "isqlw.exe" ), and use "View/Select Columns..." to choose
"I/O Writes" and "I/O Write Bytes", then I observe that doing a
select* on a table with a single row results in over 500 "I/O Writes"
and 170,000 "I/O Write Bytes" of data written. It requires 15 seconds
to return the single row of information.
Even clicking on the Change Database Listbox results in hundreds of
write operations!
However, when I am working remotely with Query Analyzer, the select*
works perfectly normally. Neither "I/O Writes" nor "I/O Write Bytes"
are recorded.
I figure maybe there is some sort of security logging turned on that
records everything you do...
Whatever is going on here, how do you turn it off?

Sounds like you have ODBC logging enabled. I believe you change that in the ODBC Administrator in the control panel. Check the Tracing tab.
And given the version number you mentioned - don't miss out on installing the latest service pack, SP3.
Yes! That is what it was!
Thanks!
Tom

Hello.
I am administering a SQL Server (Enterprise Edition on Windows 2003)
from some month and can't understand what is going on in the latest
week (when the db grow a lot).
The DB is around 250G, and has one table with 1 billion rows. It is
performing in a decent way, but can't understand why a particolar table
has strong performance problem.

I'm having trouble with a query that's prohibitively slow. On my free-standing
office computer it's fine (well, 2-4 seconds), but on the client's network, it
takes at least 5 minutes to run. Obviously not workable!
I know where the problem is, I just don't know how to fix it. The query calls
a function, and I assume it gets slow because the function runs on every
record.
So--is there a way to rewrite the function so it's quicker?...

Hi,
I'm having a bit of a problem with a small application I wrote in C#,
which uses an Access database (mdb file) for storing financial data.
After looking for a similiar topic and failing to find one, I'm posting
the question in hope some one of you guys out there will have the
answer for me...!
I'll start with what I have, then I'll continue to the problem itself.

I have a reasonably fast laptop (1.4 GHz Mobile M, so comparable to 2.5GHz

Running Windows XP pro, SP2

All SQL Servers I am referring to share a small (10 computers or so) LAN
with a 100MB Switch.
No other computers on the LAN exhibit this problem.

Hi all,
I am deploying an A2k app to users with different versions of Access.
Using Access 2000 the relinking on startup (on deploying a new frontend or when backend has changed) is very fast.
It takes about 4-5 seconds to relink some 50 tables. (I am relinking, not refreshing)
Using Access 2003 the relinking is very slow compared with Access 2000.
Now It takes about 1,5 to 2 minutes !! to relink the same 50 tables.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
