SQL 2016 – It Just Runs Faster: DBCC Scales 7x Better

SQL Server According to Bob

Internally DBCC CHECK* uses a page scanning coordinator design (MultiObjectScanner.) SQL Server 2016 changes the internal design to (CheckScanner), applying no lock semantics and a design similar to those used with In-Memory Optimized (Hekaton) objects, allowing DBCC operations to scale far better than previous releases.
