What are the steps you will take to improve performance of a poor performing query?..

Answer / m.sivakumar

Some general issues that you could talk about would be:

No indexes,
table scans,
missing or out of date statistics,
blocking, excess recompilations of stored procedures,
procedures and triggers without SET NOCOUNT ON,
poorly written query with unnecessarily complicated joins,

too much normalization, excess usage of cursors and temporary
tables.
