What is SQL Server: Statistics object?

May 12th, 2008 by uCertify Leave a reply »

The SQL Server: Statistics object is used to monitor the performance of a database. The counters of this object monitor the compilations, recompilations and batch requests of SQL statements. The recompilation of a statement can be caused by changes in a schema, insert, update, and delete operations, creation and deletion of objects, etc. A statement is recompiled if the schema of a database is changed, if data is inserted, updated, or deleted, if database objects are created or deleted. The recompilation of the statements results in slow performance of a database. The counters provided by this object are as follows:

  • SQL Server: SQL Statistics: Batch Requests/sec: This counter monitors the number of batch requests received for execution. If the value of the counter is high, it indicates good throughput.
  • SQL Server: SQL Statistics: SQL Compilations/sec: This counter indicates the number of times a SQL statement has been compiled. If the value of this counter is high, it results in slow performance of a database.
  • SQL Server: SQL Statistics: SQL Recompilations/sec: This counter monitors the number of times a SQL statement has been recompiled. If the value of this counter is high, it results in slow performance of a database.
