SQLPoolBoy: @SQLSoldier @pcaprara this has changed in SQL Server 2012 due to a rewrite of the memory allocation portion of SQLOS #sqlhelp »
SQLSoldier: @pcaprara Things like linked servers, SSIS/DTS packages, CLR, multi-page allocations, etc. do not use the buffer pool. #SQLHelp »
SQLSoldier: @pcaprara Not everything SQL uses memory for is affected by max memory. Max memory is only for the buffer pool. #SQLHelp »On January 19th, I published a post about the Dedicated Administrator Connection. I spoke very briefly of the system base tables in that article.

Slammer By now you must have heard of the SQL Slammer worm. It was quite an infectious little nuisance. The harm it caused came largely due to unpatched, unprotected SQL Servers. We are now 9 years out from the initial discovery of this worm. The worm has made its way [...]

I found myself perusing an execution plan the other day. I know, big surprise there. This execution plan showed me some interesting things I had never really paid much attention to in the past. When I started paying attention to these things, I found myself jumping down a rabbit hole. [...]
Twitter and Your Career With the new blog party on the block, we have Jason Strate (blog | twitter) asking us this month these two questions: Why should average Jane or Joe professional consider using twitter? What benefit have you seen in your career because of twitter? But first, a [...]
SQL Server has means built into it to track possible missing indexes. This used to be found through the use of the Index Tuning Wizard. The process has improved over time (you can sort of see that from my April Fools post). As luck would have it, I was recently [...]
The first opportunity of this New Year to participate in TSQLTuesday, we have been invited by David Howard (blog) to take a second shot at a previous TSQLTuesday. This second shot is giving me fits. I have no clue if it is TSQLTuesday 26 or if it is TSQLTuesday 23. [...]
