Unfortunately, this topic is more of an art than a science, given that there is really no foolproof algorithm or approach that can tell you exactly where you might hit a bottleneck with server performance. Hardware considerations The first thing we have to consider here is the resources that the underlying host provides to the database.

So when their compiled application sends ad hoc queries to SQL Server, particularly as a prepared statement, and when we don't have the freedom to add or change indexes, several tuning opportunities are immediately off the table. You won't be able to check the plan cache for these results, because of the recompile.
