I am trying to test the time it takes to run certain queries in my project. I am testing the query in management studio.
Here is a snippet of my code:
SET STATISTICS TIME ON
SET STATISTICS IO ON
EXEC <my stored procedure>
SET STATISTICS IO OFF
SET STATISTICS TIME OFF
I do not understand what I am getting as an output:
SQL Server Execution Times:
CPU time = 0 ms, elapsed time = 0 ms.
SQL Server parse and compile time:
CPU time = 21 ms, elapsed time = 21 ms.
SQL Server Execution Times:
CPU time = 0 ms, elapsed time = 0 ms.

SQL Server Execution Times:

SQL Server Execution Times:

Why so many SQL Execution times - are they additive? Can I make all the times into one easy to read time? Am I doing something wrong here?
Assuming that STATISTICS TIME was OFF at the start of the batch, you likely have:
SET STATISTICS IO ON (CPU time = 0 ms, elapsed time = 0 ms.)SET STATISTICS IO OFF (CPU time = 0 ms, elapsed time = 0 ms.)You might want to use SET STATISTICS IO, TIME <ON|OFF> instead, to remove 2 of those steps.
