I created procedure where dynamically collecting from various projects (Databases) some records into temporary table and from that temporary table I am inserting into table. With WHERE
statement , but unfortunately when I checked with Execution plan I find out, that this query part take a lot of load. How can I optimize this INSERT
part or WHERE
statement ?
INSERT INTO dbo.PROJECTS_TESTS ( PROJECTID, ANOTHERTID, DOMAINID, is_test)
SELECT * FROM #temp_Test AS tC
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT TOP 1 1
FROM dbo.PROJECTS_TESTS AS ps WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE ps.PROJECTID = tC.projectId
AND ps.ANOTHERTID = tC.anotherLink
AND ps.DOMAINID = tC.DOMAINID
AND ps.is_test = tC.test_project
)
I think you'd be better served by doing a JOIN
than EXISTS
. Depending on the cardinality of your join condition (currently in your WHERE
) you might need DISTINCT
in there too.
INSERT INTO dbo.PROJECTS_TESTS ( PROJECTID, ANOTHERTID, DOMAINID, is_test)
SELECT <maybe distinct> tC.* FROM #temp_Test AS tC
LEFT OUTER JOIN FROM dbo.PROJECTS_TESTS AS ps on
ps.PROJECTID = tC.projectId
AND ps.ANOTHERTID = tC.anotherLink
AND ps.DOMAINID = tC.DOMAINID
AND ps.is_test = tC.test_project
where ps.PROJECT ID IS NULL
or something like that
