As we learned, heavily fragmented indexes can degrade query performance significantly and cause the application accessing it to respond slowly. So now the question is how to identify the fragmentation. SQL Server 2005 and later provides a dynamic management function (DMF) to determine index fragmentat...
2) Within a SQL Server database individual pages can become internally fragmented so that many pages are less full than expected. This means more pages are needed to store the same amount of data which means more reads to satisfy each query and less total data that can be kept in memory....
More essential to spell out that the index fragmentation affects query performance only with the page scan. In such cases, it raises the chances of the poor performance of another SQL requests as well, because query with the high fragmented index over the table takes more time to execute and ...

you can see in the above execution plan the fist query is costing 60 percent of this batch and bottom query is costing 40 percent of this batch(these costs are arbitrary and doesn`t reflect the actual cost of the query) just because of the number of pages in the both index and...
The fragmentation of a SQL Server database can significantly impact its performance. It leads to increased disk I/O operations and slower query response times as the server must sift through scattered data. Moreover, it can cause decreased efficiency in memory usage and even contribute to higher...
Problem: Let’s run the below query: USE master go create database PRINCE go USE PRINCE go create table xtprince ( id int identity(1,1), name char(8000) ) go insert into xtprince values('SQLGEEKS') go 8 create clustered index IX_CLUS_xtprince on xtprince(id) ...
only then I wouldn’t worry about it, but most of us don’t have that luxury. I’ve worked on thousands of servers and analyzing fragmentation levels are one of the first things I look at. In fact, just by fixing fragmentation, I’ve saw up to 200% improvements in query performance....
