CPU Bottlenecks in SQL Server Using Performance Counters 1703006371
The first step is to monitor CPU usage using either Task Manager (% CPU Usage) or Windows
Performance Monitor (% Processor Time). A CPU usage around ~85% serves as a reliable indicator of
a CPU bottleneck.
For a detailed breakdown of Parsing, Compilation, and Execution Time of your query, enable
Statistics Options by running the following query before executing your main query:
By systematically analyzing these performance counters and queries, you can identify and address
CPU bottlenecks in your SQL Server, leading to improved overall performance.
This will show Query test, unique identified of the SQL Query and unique identified of the
Execution Plan.
Note :unravelling performance issues is a complex challenge, and in this context, I outline
the methodology for understanding CPU bottleneck issues. The approach differs in each
case. It is essential not to mimic this process on production servers.
