Conner,

do you know any other good sources for SQL tuning? The books seem to provide the basics, but there are lots of possible cases. Trial and error is very time consuming. How is the Burleson Tuning book? Any good sites other than the ones I listed? Ive been to your site. Received on Wed May 07 2003 - 21:36:46 CDT
