Hi All,

I'm really sorry if that has been before but search button is not my friend today!

I have SQL server running on Windows 2008 Enterprise SP2 X64, 2x Xenon E5420 2.5 and 17 GB of memory. 3 DBs running, 60 MB, 3.5 GB and 300 MB.
You would suspect that this should be enough but users are experiencing a long responses from SQL server.

I have setup data collection on perfmon and SQL server using data warehouse management tool. Problem is that I am not sure what is wrong..

According to report from SQL server cpu time exceeds 95.72% (http://img253.imageshack.us/f/sql2008.jpg/) but perfmon says that cpu usage does not exceeds 20%??? Would appreciate any ideas!

Many thanks
k
