FIX: When you query the DataSpaceUsed property or the IndexSpaceUsed property of a database that contains many tables in SQL Server 2008, the query takes a long time to finishArticle ID: 972197 - View products that this article applies to. Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2008 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 SQL Server 2008 fix release. SYMPTOMSIn Microsoft SQL Server 2008, you have a database that contains many tables. When you query the DataSpaceUsed property or the IndexSpaceUsed property of the tables in the database by using SQL Server Management Objects (SMO), the query takes a long time to finish. CAUSEThis issue occurs because SMO collects
the data of the dataspace usage or of the index space usage
for all tables in the database. This occurs regardless of how many tables are queried. When you query the DataSpaceUsed property or the IndexSpaceUsed property for some tables in a loop, SMO queries the data of all tables for each table in the loop. If there are many tables in the database, the query may be very slow. RESOLUTION
The fix for this issue was first released in Cumulative Update 3 for SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1.
