Hello everyone,
I have a customized application which replicates data in to sql server 2008 r2. the database is created in sql server 2008 once you installed the customized application (i assumed by means of scripts). Recently i have noticed that the database itself keeps growing and when the replicator program is running it takes a long time to replicate all the data and data is also missing. Can anyone give me any hint of what might be wrong and how i can resolve that? How can i increase the performance of sql server?
Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks

What do you mean by database growing ? What exactly is growing the data file or the log file ?

Does the "Distribution clean up: distribution" job run? It cleans up previously replicated commands...

no i haven't used it since i am not using replication in sql server 2008 r2, its a third party application which replicates data to sql server. Should i still use the replication monitor?
Thanks for your assistance.
