Investigating weird Chrome performance problems is literally my job so we started chatting. In a steady-state process (not allocating excessively) on a system with sufficient memory (this system had 64 GiB of RAM and roughly 47 GiB of that was available) the number of page faults should be close to zero, and this was a long way from that.

I always check backups first when looking at a new system. What I find is very similar to backups: No DBCC CHECKDBs performed at all DBCC CHECKDBs being performed only on select databases DBCC CHECKDBs last performed months or years ago. Memory settings. Statistics. Index maintenance. SQL Server Agent alerts.

SQL Server According to Bob

NOVEMBER 29, 2016

Your NUMA system may not have different processor groups for each node. Here is another example from another two node system I have with one processor group. This is a two node system with 6 cores per node (with HT 12 logical CPUs per node). Why did SQL Server take this 4 node system and now split into 16 nodes?

In addition to looking at performance differences, we also want to compare ScaleOut StateServer (SOSS) to AppFabric on qualitative measures, such as features, ease of installation, and management. Testing Scale-Up Performance. So our comments will be confined to what testing we felt was valuable and how well SOSS performed.

Note: It makes sense to use S3 as the cloud object storage solution only if we also use Amazon’s service for virtual servers on the cloud, EC2 , for running the application. Otherwise, the user may have to wait extra seconds from uploading/downloading an image to/from a distant location.
