What are your general opinion towards the Index Tuning Wizrard? To me, it sometimes recommends very good indexes which solve my headache for slow-running stored procedures. However, the index it recommends sometimes contain more than 8 columns in a table and I doubt whether it would cause any side effects in other aspects (e.g. inserting new records or updating these columns), though my application is not a heavily used one.

like any other tool ITW is good to a point. after that it's you experience and testing that counts.
not every suggestion it makes is perfect
