I currently have an application that writes data to an sql database after reading it in from a text file. The file is extremely large and contains 100000's of records, so speed is important. In addition to the speed, i also need to be ale to share the database. As such I have selected MS sql server. (Not server expres)
However when I add records, the sql server (which is running in the same machine) seem to take a long time to respond / process the record inserts.
I have taken some timings, and if I use a file using SQL compat edition and a single file, it responds ok, however when I utilise the sql server instance, the response time is about 10 times slower. :mad:
Is there a parameter that needs tweaking so the server runs faster, or is what I a seeing to be expected.
Any advice would be appreciated.
