Pc bogs down when running longer, more voluminous queries

Hi we run 2012 enterprise.
I'm noticing that when running longer and higher column count queries locally, other parts of my computer (os w7 professional, 64 bit, 8gb) start getting sluggish.  I started looking for wasted disk space and started cleaning up but wonder if here are
some standard steps for keeping other things like browsers, spreadsheets, email etc etc from suffering while longer sql queries r running?  It is much worse when ssis is in the picture (even after stopping debugger) but i thought i'd start in this forum.

Hello,
That's kind of the point of SQL Server is to use the resources to return the data as quickly and efficiently as possible. It's server based software. I'm not sure which edition you are using, as express is capped in memory usage but if you're using standard
or above you'll want to set the max server memory to something low enough to not impact your other applications (though this could cause disk thrashing and make things worse).
Since SQL Server isn't really made for desktop usage (ok, express edition is kind of) the only thing you can do is kee your queries and data items light and efficient. Tune the queries, use indexes, etc.  From the OS side of view there isn't anything
you can do. If you're running enterprise edition (which I highly doubt) you could employ resource governor but why shoot yourself in the foot? Plus Enterprise edition costs more than the desktop and it woul dmake sense to use an actual server.
If you add SSIS into the mix, yes it could (and probably will) perform much worse.

  • My MacBook is almost two years old and has started running really slow. It gets bogged down when it is running different programs at the same time, like Safari and Pages. It didn't react this way until recently. Any advice would be very welcome.

    Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive (the drive itself, not the volume icons below it.) Is the SMART status "Verified?" If not, replace the drive immediately. If the status is "Verified," the drive may still be failing. Back up all data, if you haven't already done so. Reinstall Mac OS X, then run Software Update. Test with all wired peripherals disconnected. If it's still slow, you have a hardware problem.

  • My Satellite laptop (A305) shuts down when run on the AC charger/adapter

    The problem is that my Toshiba _A300 series laptop (A305) shuts down when you try to run it on the AC charger/adapter_. You can boot it with the power cord plugged in and it will get to Windows Desktop and maybe a few minutes more at most before shutting off.
    It will boot and _run from battery without problem_, but if you plug in the AC while it is up and running on battery the machine will normally click off instantly and reboot to the message "Windows was not shut down correctly."
    The _AC adapter works fine_ reading a steady 19.19 to 19.20 volts with a voltmeter. It also _charges the battery fine when the computer is off_. I have two Toshiba brand batteries and they both work fine.
    One interesting thing is that the _computer runs fine on AC when in safe mode_.
    I _did a reformat/factory restore_ of Vista to assure it was not software and drivers, and still got the same problem before any external devices had been plugged in.
    It has the latest BIOS and I tried resetting it to default values in case anything had gotten changed. It made no difference.
    This is _not a heating issue_ because _while it is run on battery I can watch long videos_ without it shutting off. I ran compressed air through the vents just to make sure, but it makes no difference in behavior. Usually with an overheating shut-off, the computer cannot be started until it has cooled some, but these shutdowns are accompanied by an instant reboot.
    I have seen on some threads that this type of problem one can work around by disabling one of the processors in Device Manager, but I don't think that is much of a lasting solution or good for the computer.
    Has anyone seen this problem before and have you come with a full diagnosis of the problem and a real solution?

    I have Satellite A300 and until now everything works OK.
    I would like to know what happen when you remove the battery and use notebook with power supply only. Does notebook shuts down again.
    If not let OS run and put the battery.
    Is the battery recognized properly? Does notebook switch off again?
    To be honest I cannot imagine this issue has something with software or background processes. Recovery image you got with your notebook is designed for this certain notebook mode. Recovery image is tested and I dont think preinstalled OS has anything to do with this.
    Full diagnosis?
    And how to do this? You know very well that diagnosis can be done with diagnostic tools only and such tools have services only. I hope you will find answers but Im 99% sure there is nothing you can do about that. Maybe you should contact service, explain the situation and ask for help.

  • HP M8300f fails to start, shuts down when running

    I have to frequently use system restore because it fails to start properly.      When running, it frequently shuts down (blue or black screen).    From what I have learned researching on the net, there is a known issue with the motherboard on this computer.   
    I purchased two HP laptops that have also failed before their time.    Apparently a known issue with overheating.    I wish I had known before I bought them.    They both failed a year ago.     Now the desktop is failing.   
    Thank you, HP, for your not-so fine quality control.     
    I will never again purchase an HP computer or device of any kind.     Ever.      Nor will I recommend them to any of the people in my circle of friends or at the Fortune 100 company where I work.    

    The same problem to me. In just over a year, mine started with these freezing problems. After many tries with customer support, none of which provided me with a clue I gave up.Then I found the motherboard's capacitors were kind of bulged. Bad quality boards I guess.

  • IMac overheating and shutting down when running XP?

    I'm using my iMac to play games in Windows, which stresses the processor a lot-- it heats up like crazy. If it gets too hot, it either locks up or the graphics cut out altogether and I'm left with things still running and responding (I can tell from the sound) and a black screen.
    I don't have these problems when running equally graphics-intensive games OSX-side.
    Anything I can do for my iMac to cool it down a bit, short of playing in a meat locker? (I have a fan blowing directly at the vent on the back, and it mitigates it somewhat.)

    Hi Melissa,
    use either SpeedFan http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php or InputRemapper http://www.olofsson.info/index.html?inputremapper.html for fan control when running Windows.

  • WCF channel closed in Azure VM when running long operations

    Hi!
    We are hosting a WCF Service on a Azure VM. Now we have a Problem with a web service method that runs longer than ~ 5 minutes. So the web client calls the method, the service starts some calculations and should return a value. But the problem is that the
    channel seems to be closed (by Azure itself?) before we finish the calculation an can return the value. We receive following error message:
    System.Net.HttpListenerException: The semaphore timeout period has expired
    We are using .NET 4.0 and wsHttpBinding. Any idea what causes this problem or how we could solve it?

    Hi Thomas,
    Base on my experience, the reason for this is that the Load Balancer of Windows Azure Datacenter will silently tear down any idle connection after 4 minutes. You may need expend Keepalive time. I suggest you could refer to this code sample (http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/WCF-Azure-NetTCP-Keep-Alive-09f50fd9
    ) about how to keep alive channel. Also, you could refer to this document (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cie/archive/2014/02/14/connection-timeout-for-windows-azure-cloud-service-roles-web-worker.aspx
    Hope this helps.

  • Apps shutting down when four or more open

    Sounds like the old days. Moved from an old G4 to a new Mac Pro. Installed my apps from the old system into the new from the install disks. Only moved files from the old system. Noticed today that my apps will not open when there is more than four open. Continue to close when I try to open them. This is with all apps not just Adobe.
    Any thoughts?
    2 gb of memory with 200gb available.

    I personally would wipe the hard drive and start over. If you have a memory test tool then I would use that to make sure the memory is good. Here is my pref way to install applications:
    1) Wipe the hard drive
    2) Install EVERY application via installer or DVD/CD disk (if you have applications that don't have installers or a DVD/CD disk then that might be your problem)
    3) Make sure you have the latest version of all the applications you are installing and do all updates before running
    4) The only information you want to bring from your old mac is personal files/media etc. But don't port over applications from the old mac
    5) Install and update the common mac apps and run them. Make sure you don't receive errors. Then start slowly installing lesser known apps. If one of the apps haven't updated in a couple of years I would be concerned about compatibility.
    6) Restart your mac after updates and makes sure you pick up the latest updates.
    7) Install apps in this order:
    a. Apple applications
    b. Adobe applications
    c. More popular 3rd party applications
    d. Less popular 3rd party applications
    Again make sure that these applications are supported and you have the latest versions of them. I always am watching 3rd party applications to make sure of regular updates. If they don't update often then I would avoid them.
    Hope this helps.

  • Safari 5.0.6 (2011) bogs down, Javascript runs slow

    I have an old computer, Quad G5 (PowerPC) running 10.5.8 Leopard.  I'm on Safari 5.0.6.
    After running for a while, with several windows open, Safari bogs down.  Scrolling slow.  I get a prompt

    If I quit Safari, & restart..everything's fine (no bogging down).  But, sure enough, "bogging" comes back shortly.
    What is going on?

  • XP slows down when running on battery

    Hi, I've just bought a brand new macbook and upgraded it with 1GB of RAM. However, after I installed bootcamp and loaded xp, I found out that the macbook begins to lag when I unplug the magsafe. Is this normal?
    This issue is most noticeable when I play audio on the macbook. Whenever I open any audio file and repeatedly press the apple (windows) key next to the space par, the audio jitters pauses every half a second. This isn't limited to that, it lags whenever I open a new window or folder. It only does that when running off battery power.
    I'm a new mac user and I was wondering if any of you had the same problems. I know my parents' PC laptops don't have the same problem when they unplug their power. Please respond, or at least let me know if I'm the only one with this issue.
    Macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  
      Mac OS X (10.4.7)  
      Windows XP Pro  

    Finally someone raised the question I asked numerous times and couldn't get anyone to try it out on their macbooks.
    Yes - Windows XP will lagg when on battery power only. I've noticed it few weeks ago. Strangely - OSX won't lagg when on battery power.
    I got one answer on my previous post that made a lot of sense - The person told me that it's probably just a glitch in the BOOTCAMP beta - since its only a trial version for now - until its fully upgraded with Leopard.
    It makes a sence now that I'm not the only one with the problem. Its probably BOOTCAMP.
    I guess we will have to wait for Leopard with the upgraded, fully supported version of BOOTCAMP.
    Glad to hear that I'm not the only one - I can be sure now that its not a faulty battery or logic board.
    For now use the magsafe when on Windows side - until you get leopard or until new version of Bootcamp is released.

  • Blackberry Desktop Software shuts down when running Sprint Smart View Internet Service (Air Card)

    Just installed Blackberry Desktop Software and it runs ok when I am not running Sprint Smart View (This is my program for my internet service / sprint air card).  As soon as I start Sprint Smart View the desktop software no longer works and just shuts itself down after a minute or two.

    I'm not familiar with this particular package, but with similar packages from other carriers there's usually a setting that lets the program control your Network - it may only say Wi-Fi.
    The BlackBerry drivers include a Dial-Up connection which is probably getting shut down by the software which kills Desktop Manager.
    If you turn off that option, the problem should go away (reboot probably a good idea).

  • Powerbook shuts down when running on battery

    I got this problem only lately int these lasts months... my powerbook g4 15" is almost 3 years old.
    I first noticed that the battery endurance is more and more reducing...it lasts more or less 20 minutes from when I unplug it form the power-net.
    And that's only "the bright side" of the problem: because more and more often I'm getting the powerbook (always when it is running on battery alone) shutting down without any warning with battery indicator still full...
    that's really wired.. it is really running me mad...
    I found some other topic on the forum... but none of them helped me getting the clue on what's happening to my powerbook
    do you think that doing a reset to the battery will sort things out?
    thanks you very much in advance I hope someone can help me...
    powerbook g4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Sadly I think the last coment is right. After so many charges (500-1,000) the battery dies. I had the exact same thing happen to another brand of laptop when its battery died. Replaced it and it works great again. Sorry to say but rechargable batteries don't last forever.

  • Reports Services getting down when running reports using in process server

    Hi,
    I have applied patchset 3829014 (Containers for J2EE: Patchset PLACE HOLDER FOR OC4J STANDALONE RELEASE 9.0.4.1)
    to fix the Bug No. 2670561 CPU usage becomes 100% when there is a new HTTP connection
    request in the queue.
    Now after reploying the *.ear file and restarting OC4J_BI_FORMS services from Enterprise Manager and starting the Reports Services if I want to run the reports from the application contained in the ear file, I find the Reports Services is down and the browser throws a 500 - Internal Server Error.
    In the ipm.log file in Oracle_home\opmn\logs I find the following lines:
    05/01/08 17:15:55 [4] Process Alive: OC4J~OC4J_BI_Forms~default_island~1 (1162281586:636)

    I can't get from where the response code of 500 is coming.
    I have consulted the Doc Id 261867.1 in Metalink and has tuned the opmn.xml file as suggested there but of no use.
    Urgent help in this regard is needed where I went wrong as my production Application Server has become inoperative.
    Thanks
    Nilay

    The ear file contains the front end application from where the reports are called. I have created a new J2EE instance and deployed the application in the form of ear file there.
    After tuning the opmn.xml file following Metalink Doc. Id 261867.1 adding a value of pingtimeout, I found the OC4J_BI_FORMS was not shutting down the inprocess reports server and I was unable to generate reports by giving values from URL. But when I deploy the ear file in the newly created J2EE instance, the OC4J_BI_FORMS is shutting down . Now when I try to start the infrastructure components the OC4J_SEcurity is showing Database dependancy failed although OID and HTTP server components are up.

    I also installed 4GB ram in it 4 months ago and never had this problem. Could having the new ram in it be draining the battery?
    If someone could help me with this extremely annoying problem it would really be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

    As you can see, I have only 57 cycles on this battery. I cannot do anything on battery power only anymore. I spent all morning draining the battery to 0 (all lights on battery off) When the battery is charged and when on battery power, the computer will shut off. The battery charge indicator LEDs on the battery itself has 4 of 5 solid and 5th one blinking. The computer will not power on for about 5 minutes when on battery power only. I bought this MBP about 15 months ago. Any help would be appreciated

  • AME bogs down when encoding

    I have a fairly edit-intense file that I've been trying to encode (using Adobe Media Encoder) for YouTube. The first part of the video (a little over 5 minutes total length) is pretty straight-forward video and chugs along just fine. Then it hits a section which is heavily edited - a bunch of green screen video with some effects and it understandably slows down. The problem I'm getting is that when it gets through that section to something less intensive, it continues to be VERY slow to render frames. It's like the tough part made it tired and it just doesn't have the energy anymore. I've tried several different output options, all with the same results.
    What's most frustrating is that during editing, I have saved versions of this which did not bring the encoding to a halt. In fact, the most recent successful encoding was making a DVD ISO in Encore which also included an additional video and menu screen. Yet that worked as expected in a reasonable amount of time. What could have changed?
    I started this project and wrote to DVD in CS6. My first attempt at the YouTube output was also CS6. Thinking the upgrade to CC might fix the problem, I upgraded, but it's reacting in the same way.
    I appreciate any help - thanks!

    Now, to make things worse. Since I couldn't figure out the issue, I just let the sequence run. I happened to be at my computer for the last few frames (watching it render in AME's output preview) at roughly the 45 hour mark! I was happy that even though it took forever, at least it was done. But I noticed the progress bar was only about 1/2 way through... and then the video started over! It didn't save the file, it just kept on rendering a second time through.
    How could that be? Is there a "repeat" setting I might have accidentally changed? This has been so frustrating.

  • P30 shuts down when running virus scan and other apps

    Hi,
    I've got a Satellite P30-110. Lately it has started to shutdown without warning and power off. When I start it back up again it loads normally without a scandisk.
    It first started when I was using FAST via crossover cable. It would shutdown shortly after starting to gather the files. Then it started happening when I tried to run a virus scan using McAfee VirusScan 9. Now it also happens when I try to encode video.
    I have tried doing all of the above after starting in Safe Mode, running msconfig and disabling all startup items and normally. Still I get the exact same result.
    I have not installed any new hardware or software. I have updated my BIOS to v1.3. My notebook is plugged in when this happens. I have enough HD space. I just don't have a clue as to whats happening!! Please help!

    Hi there, The simplest way is to use a vacuum cleaner hose on the fan grills as described in an earlier post. However, if ther is a lot of dust and debris stuck in the heat sink then it may be necessary to remove the heat sink first. This can be done by removing the cover on the bottom of the notepad (adjacent to the fan grilles), and then remove the screws holding the heat sink in place.
    Note that the heat sink will be attached with contact paste to help the heat dispersal. Please don't forget to power off the PC first, and also make sure that there is sufficient contact paste when refitting the hest sink.
