Thanks, FJB.

Someone brought this to our attention on Twitter, and I investigated.

Rebooting our database and webservers did not resolve the speed issue. So I debugged the web application down to the individual SQL stored procedure level, and found the sp that was dragging down performance. I next determined that writes to a particular logging table on our server were running incredibly slow. So, I recreated the table under another name, deleted the old one, and renamed the new table back to the original name.

Problem resolved. Speeds lightning fast again.

I don't know how this happens, but once in a while, high access tables in MS SQL get corrupted in some bizarre manner that causes the server to run dog slow when writing to them. It's not very often this happens, but I've seen this problem enough in the past with other tables that I knew the exact steps of how to resolve the issue, as described.

Regards,

@Dima
