I am trying to improve the performance of an job that is scheduled to run every four hours. The job contains a legacy dts package.

Would converting the dts package to an ssis package improve the performance?

Thanks

Possibly. You won't know until you try - it might be slower.
Have you looked at what it does - might be a better way to implement.

==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
SSIS can be used in a similar way.

The package creates 4 temp tables and moves roughly 300 millions rows from multiple joined tables to several other tables. The tables are in separate db's on the same sql server.
