Open “Auto-Param Analysis.sql” and run queries from groups (1) and (2). What we see is: +a. Large number of queries / plan entries, small number of different query/plan hashes indicates queries that are not parametrized although they are good candidates +b. Relatively big compile time shows that system wastes resources on compilation instead of execution +3. Open SSMS Top Resource Consuming queries – if you increase number of presented queries to 50 you’ll see that majority of queries has similar /negligible consumption – there’s nothing user can optimize/tune. This is what we call “death by a thousand of cuts” +4. Run (3) query to see query text pattern – it becomes obvious that queries differ only by provided literal value +5. If you run (1) you’ll notice that numbers do not change although workload is running. (4) gives us the answer – Query Store went to READ_ONLY due to large number of queries / plans. This is another point you should make: ad-hoc queries are not bad for SQL Server & execution but also for Query Store as it goes to RO mode which means we do not operate with latest facts! +6. Run (5) to parametrize query and clear Query Store. Workload is still running! +7. Run (1) again to see numbers now: ration between count(queries) and count(distinct query_hash) is now near to 1. +8.
