SP4 performance hits

  • Has anybody noticed any performance issues with SQL 2000 SP4? I have applied this to a server which was having some issues which I was hoping would be fixed by SP4. They weren't! Anyway having resolved the issues I ran a dbcc checkdb. Normally on a DB of this size (60gb) I would expect it to take approx2-3 hrs. This took over 18 hours to complete! Has anybody noticed any other performance hits in rebuilding indexes etc with SP4 applied?

  • Anybody got any info?

  • The only thing I heard I heard was a problem with AWE. You should wait before installing if you have a server with AWE enabled.

  • sp4 warning:

    or you can refer the previous topic "sp4 warning" which probably will give you some hints on your issue.

  • Thanks,  but we aren't using AWE on any of our servers. The pages referenced do not provide any information releating the issues seen. Maybe its just me.....but I doubt it!

  • I have installed SP4s just after the releasing of it. But upto now I don't have any issues.
