In the middle of last week my users started telling me that the response time of our app had degraded noticeably. A new version of the app had gone out so I assumed it was related to that, then I found out that it was slower from QA!

The only other thing that has changed is that there is a new mini app that (alledgedly) calls a (fairly complex) view that is wrapped in a stored procedure, this was originally being called every minute but I have reduced this to every 30 mins. When doing so I noticed that this app seems to hold the connection open all the time.

I know I can run a trace to see what is going on but I'm not sure what I'm really looking for, I presume wait time, CPU, IO and memory useage are on the list somewhere but is there anything else I should be looking for to find the cause. Just to add to the complexity we are on SQL Server 7

Many thanks

Steve Why the Sp / View Relationship?
Why not just a layered SP?

Perhaps I didn't explain very well. It isn't really a view, it was originally written that way for testing and then I changed it to a stored procedure for security and to ensure the data was read only. Is that what you mean? If there is a better way please let me know.

This sproc is called by the mini app but is also called by an even smaller app I have written so that I can check the data it is putting out

thanks
