Hi Everyone,

I have a query running for an applications which spikes to 100% while running on multiple threads. Could you please help in tuning the below query and avoid cPU spike.

SQL

select SubTable.RelationId, SubTable.NickName, SubTable.ProductTypeCode, SubTable.SubProductTypeCode, SubTable.CurrencyCode,
Users.UserId, Users.Name, Users.Lang, Users.UserLoginId, Users.UserLoginIdBase, Users.SendUnsolicitMessages,
Users.SMSCountryCode, Users.SMSNumber, Users.SMSAllowed, Users.SMSActivationStatus, Users.SMSTermsAndConditions, Users.SMSDailyThreshold,
Loyalty.BranchCode, Loyalty.BranchName, Loyalty.BranchCountry
from SubTable WITH(NOLOCK), Users WITH(NOLOCK), Loyalty WITH(NOLOCK) where
SubTable.AccountNumber = @P1  and
SubTable.AccountExternalId = @P2  and
SubTable.SubProductTypeCode = @P3  and
SubTable.CurrencyCode = @P4  and
SubTable.UserId = Users.UserId and
Users.ActivationFlag = 'Y' and
SubTable.BranchIdRl = Loyalty.BranchId

Use proper table joins to select from multiple (google "sql select join table" and you'll find examples). If the cpu spike is just that, a spike that quickly dies then it's nothing to worry about. Beyond the joins there is nothing in your query that can be optimised, you'd have to optimise the table for fast selecting by adding indexes.

I had the same issue. Basically we need to check for those columns/fields who participate in this query. Think you need to run query execution plan and check

Here are some useful links which I had used and sorted the issue
