I've run into 2 problems w/ very large DB.
A) Backups. I have a 50G DB. I backup to file then delete
yesterday's backup file (I have another process which transfers the
backup file to tape). So I have a 50G backup file and I need another
50G freespace, to run my backup process.
B) Reindexing. On any given day maybe 5% (max) of new data is added
to my DB. But DBCC reindex has to work on all the indexes. So DBCC
reindex takes 3 hours a night. Yuck.
Maybe there is a better way. But I try to keep each database as small
as possible.
