Slow Performance on Sql Express after inserting big chunks of data?

Probably SQL Server allocated new disk space in many small chunks. When doing big transactions, it's better to pre-allocate much space in both the data and log files.

One tip I've seen is to turn off Auto-create stats and Auto-update stats before doing the bulk insert.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
