Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Microsoft SQL Server 2008, or Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Microsoft SQL Server 2008, or Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 fix release.

Symptoms

In Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Microsoft SQL Server 2008, or Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2, you have a query that contains a large IN clause. For example, the IN clause contains thousands of values. When you run this query, a non-yielding scheduler error may occur. Additionally, a mini-dump file is generated in the SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008, or SQL Server 2008 R2 log folder. Sometimes you may also see the following error message in the SQL Server Error log file:

Error: 8623, Severity: 16, State: 1.

The query processor ran out of internal resources and could not produce a query plan. This is a rare event and only expected for extremely complex queries or queries that reference a very large number of tables or partitions. Please simplify the query. If you believe you have received this message in error, contact Customer Support Services for more information.


Note If Error 8623 occurs together with the non-yielding scheduler error, the execution of the query fails.

Cause

This problem occurs because of an issue in the SQL Server code base. During the execution of the query that contains the large IN clause, the SQL Server code base does not yield a scheduler appropriately. This behavior causes CPU starvation for other worker threads that run on the same scheduler and causes a non-yielding scheduler error.
