SQL Server Performance Office Hours Episode 19


To ask your questions, head over here.

Tell me about the perils of using SNAPSHOT for writes. Is learning how to deal with conflict detection really worse than the pains of pessimism?
Why SqlServer doesn’t have parallel rollback ?
How can you be for SORT_IN_TEMPDB and for Accelerated Database Recovery? If tempdb is good for performance, then isn’t ADR bad for performance?
Your experience says to prefer the legacy cardinality estimator. What is fundamentally wrong with the new estimator?
You previously discussed why you use SORT_IN_TEMPDB. Would you default to that in Azure SQL Database given the lack of control over tempdb (including sizing) in that product?

What are the pros and cons of using clustered indexes on #temp tables (as opposed to non-clustered)
I am a junior DBA, I have been reading about performance tuning online. Can you pls let me know how do i start looking for the queries that are worst performing(timing out) and how do I see the actual execution plan of them?
What’s the best way to deal with ascending key issues? Would using OPTIMIZE FOR UNKNOWN or local variables be a good approach?
Hi Erik! Azure SQL Database vs SQL Server on Azure VMs. What do you think are the pros and cons of Azure SQL Database?
I’ve fallen in love with adaptive joins. They’ve solved problems with parameter sensitivity for me. I’ve never seen you mention them in that context. Any reason why?
