RE: Query processing takes very variable time

Sorry, Jared for the cryptic request. It is a complex process to set up the tables, etc, but once they are set, we run a stored proc that works on these tables - and the SQL code seems very simple - selects, inserts, and updates [even those are simple, nothing fancy ]. However, the processing factor takes long sometimes (not all the times).  

I was hoping to look for *extraneous* factors (outside the code) that can affect the processing and if anyone on this list has any experience like that.  

Thanks,  

• Pradeep
