Hi, I have a program. Some users complained that the program runs slowly. after some check, it turns out that it is because the database part of the program runs slowly on these users' machine. the reason why it is slow is not because of the program, it is because the user's sql server (either on user's machine or another server) is slow.
So, we think maybe we can write a test program to "benchmark" the performance of the sql server. Does anyone have the experience? I mean how we can do it? Do we just query/insert/update the database , say 1,000,000 times, and get the time it takes, then use it as the measure for server performance? is that a standard?
thanks
