My goal is to resolve mysteries about SQL Server I encounter but do this without going straight the source code first.

One of the most important concepts in analysing database performance is that of understanding scalability. Plotting these data points enables us to understand the scalability of the database software being tested on that system. software running on the same server.

SQL Server has a cost-based optimizer that uses knowledge about the various tables involved in a query to produce what it decides is the most optimal plan in the time available to it during compilation. However, nothing easily allows SQL Server to determine what percentage of the leaf level for each index of a table is already in memory.
