Hi As per my experience SQL Server 2005 performance is much better than '2000'.
1. Please check whether the SQL Server setup is in line with Microsoft recommendations. 2. Go further and check things like disc-alignment. Take a look at http://sqlblogcasts.com/blogs/christian/archive/2007/10/09/disk-sector-alignment.aspx 3. SQL Server 2005 engine is heavily optimized towards cluster indexes. You will see a lot of cluster indexes introduced from V4.0 onwards. Please back-port them. However, please note that there is a small chance that the cluster indexes for some tables in standard Ax may not be appropriate with your data usage pattern. In this case you will have to figure out the best fit cluster index yourself. 4. Last but not the least make sure you are running the database with compatibility mode 90. (It is easy to forget this). I must say I am a very happy camper since I started using SQL Server 2005. Regards Harry This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

I read a couple of post here and there about Axapta being slower on SQL Server 2005 then 2000. I thought that people that have problem post messages and those who don't stays quiet. That's why I was only seeing post about SQL 2005 being slower. But then I stubble on a post on MBS forum (http://www.microsoft.com/Businesssolutions/Community/Newsgroups/dgbrows er/en-us/default.mspx? query=sql+2005&dg=microsoft.public.axapta.database&cat=&lang=en&cr=US&pt =&catlist=8d3f188d-a0E9-40e4-86e2- 46508a35c759&dglist=&ptlist=&exp=&sloc=en-us). And the quote is : "First of all Ax database runing on same hardware with SQL2005 is ~20% slower than SQL200 database (tested)." I can't find something clearer that this. So, does my friends of the Axapta Knowledge Village acknowledge this statement? I'm gonna test this in our dev environment and if it turns out true, then it's gonna be the end of our SQL Server 2005 migration I guess. Btw, we are staying at Ax3.0 SP3 even if we migrate to SQL 2005. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
