Feature Presentation

SQL Server Memory Management: Mythbuster Edition

Presenter: Joe McTaggart, Microsoft

Date: February 21st, 2012


We will cover the basics of SQL Server memory management and use that to look at some of the common misconceptions of how to manage, configure, and troubleshoot SQL Server memory issues. Want to be a rock star at your next water cooler discussion on lazy writer vs checkpoint, this presentation is for you. Why doesn’t task manager show all SQL memory? Why is SQL Server’s memory usage above max server memory? What is a good number for PLE? All of these are great questions, and this topic offers a nice blend of practical information for the everyday DBA, and deeper internal knowledge for the SQL übergeeks in the crowd. You know who you are!
