Hi All,
While im on the MAXDOP high, i thought i'd pose another question for a waitstats output im getting from one of my OLTP servers:
If i order by waittime:
CXPACKET, has the greates percentage of waittime but the absolute avg seems quite low:
waittype, percentage, avg_wait_time_s
CXPACKET, 72.8, 0.0074
LATCH_EX, 8.2, 0.0029
PAGELATCH_EX, 3.7, 0.000
If i order by avg_wait_time_s, then its a different waittype
ASYNC_IO_COMPLETION, 0.8, 97.5 (!)
LCK_M_U, 0.2, 0.5
LCK_M_S, 0.2, 0.0
So looking at the top 3 'offenders' ordered by different criteria, which would you see is the real pain point or which area would i start investigating first?
Thanks in advance!
