Proper Indexing a table containing 200+ fields for better performance

  • Hi,

    I've been trying to increase performance on a singular table containing the following:

    1. Over 200 Fields

    2. Indexed on PK call ID

    3. Data table can contain 100,000

    4. Slow performance in Query Analyzer

    5. Table can not be changed

    How to increase performance? I added a non-clustered index on where clause candidates - did yield or increase performances.

    any thoughts

    Thanks,

  • From the info that you've given us, all I can suggest is to add indexes to support the queries. If you want more specific help than that, please post the queries that are slow, as well as the other required info as indicated in the article referenced above.
