First check the processor and memory usage to see that
processor is not above 80% utilization and memory not above
40-45% utilization then check the disk utilization using
Performance Monitor, Secondly, use SQL Profiler to check for
the users and current SQL activities and jobs running which
might be a problem. Third would be to run UPDATE_STATISTICS
