Question

I am using sql server 2005 and i want to measure some query performance using an analyzer tool.... Any good tool (free/Open Source) that you can refer.....

Was it helpful?

Solution

SQL Server Profiler comes with SQL Server 2005 tools, and can be used to show resources used to perform a query/many queries.

As always, SQL Server Management Studio (also from the tools) can be used to generate execution plans and determine query performance.

EDIT I'd like to also add this link to Displaying Graphical Execution Plans (SQL Server Management Studio). I intended for this to be the link above, but I got my tabs confused :(

OTHER TIPS

SQLProfiler for the express editions looks good (can't vouch for it myself, though, as I use the profiling tools that come with the enterprise edition: see Codesleuth's answer for more info).
