- Monitor query performance with the SQL Server 2005 procedure cache
- In SQL Server 2005, you only need to recompile the statements inside stored procedures. This is much different than SQL Server 2000, where the entire procedure or batch may be recompiled. The benefit to the statement level recompile in SQL Server 2005 is that typically just a few statements inside...

- Efficient Runahead Execution: Power-Efficient Memory Latency Tolerance
- Runahead execution improves memory latency tolerance without significantly increasing processor complexity. Unfortunately, a runahead execution processor executes significantly more instructions than a conventional processor, sometimes without providing any performance benefit, which makes it inefficient. This paper identifies the causes of inefficiency in runahead execution and proposes simple -yet effective-techniques to...
