Lesson Learned #218:Hands-On-Labs: What do I need to do in case of high LOG_RATE_GOVERNOR wait time
Published Jul 06 2022 02:21 PM 2,635 Views

We used to have cases where our customers reported a performance issue that is causing delay in their business. Working on this issue we saw that the LOG_RATE_GOVERNOR was the most wait time. In this video below we going to provide us some insights about it,.

 

Why this issue happened?

 

How?

  • Azure Portal
  • Select * from sys.dm_db_resource_stats

 

select top 5 * from sys.dm_db_resource_stats

 

 

  • Select * from sys.dm_exec_requests in combinations with other DMVs.

 

SELECT
req.session_id
, req.start_time
, cpu_time 'cpu_time_ms'
, status
, wait_time
, last_wait_type
, total_elapsed_time
, transaction_id
, wait_resource
, task_address
, object_name(st.objectid,st.dbid) 'ObjectName'
, substring
(REPLACE
(REPLACE
(SUBSTRING
(ST.text
, (req.statement_start_offset/2) + 1
, (
(CASE statement_end_offset
WHEN -1
THEN DATALENGTH(ST.text)
ELSE req.statement_end_offset
END
- req.statement_start_offset)/2) + 1)
, CHAR(10), ' '), CHAR(13), ' '), 1, 512) AS statement_text,*
FROM sys.dm_exec_requests AS req
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(req.sql_handle) as ST
where session_id <> @@SPID

 

 

Best Practices

 

  • Use Business Critical, Premium or Hyperscale if possible.
  • Use smaller batches.
  • Review if all indexes are needed
  • Avoid huge amount like text.
  • Implement a more robust retry logic execution.
  • Move Historical data to another DB.

 

Enjoy!
