databases runs at 100% CPU when ever a query it made. Nothing else has
changed! Before SP4 the queries are quite small and took only 1-2 seconds to
run and maybe 10% CPU time, now it 100% CPU time and 30-50 seconds.
If I copy the database to another server with SP3 on it, it works fine. If I
then install SP4 on this machine it now runs at 100% CPU for 30-50 seconds.
The system is a clustered 2003R2 with SQL2000 connected to a fibre SAN with
RAID10 disks for the databases, 1 for the logs, 5 for the SQL EXE, 5 for
temp, msdb, etc And monitoring them there seems to be no disk problems,
queues are short, etc
Can anyone help? either hot fix, uninstall (don't have SP3 backup of master,
etc), sp changes.
Cheers
nigelDid you run update_statistics , reindex database.
Maybe recompile stored procedures!

I've run these manually and as part of the daily maintenance plan. The
database also has Auto update and create statistics.
At present the part where it all goes mad does not use any SP, but is called
via a JDBC Java client directly.
Task Manager view can be seen here.

Have you reviewed the execution plan for one of the problem queries?
Did you update statistics (manually, not automatically) when you moved
the database?

that query slightly so that it gets a better plan.

I've updated all the indexes DBCC DBREINDEX(@.TableName,' ',90)
The process uses no SP all queries are suppled from the client using JDBC,
doesn't this mean that the query plan is updated as and when. Certainly afte
r
a reboot? Or am I wrong?
I've run PSSDiag but I'm no expert at looking at the traces files. Either a
little help or lots of reading to do?

NIgel|||It may very well generate a new query plan each and every time you execute
it. But that does not mean it will generate a good one or even a different
one. If it generated a bad plan the last time you executed it and the
conditions or parameters have not changed chances are it will generate a bad
one again and again and again. Some times the conditions are such or the
data is such that the optimizer thinks it has the right plan but ends up
with a bad one for your conditions. By changing the query slightly ( an IN
to an EXISTS or an EXISTS to a JOIN etc) you can wind up with a different
and in this case hopefully better plan.

how query plans are calculated?

some extent and Sp4 is no exception. Most of the time it is due to fixing
bugs and occasionally a query plan may be affected by it. This does not mean
all of them will change.
