DMV-6 : How well my store procedure doing ?……..sys.dm_exec_procedure_stats

sys.dm_exec_procedure_stats DMV (Dynamic Management View), described by BOL as follows : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc280701.aspx

Returns aggregate performance statistics for cached stored procedures. The view con­tains one row per stored procedure, and the lifetime of the row is as long as the stored procedure remains cached. When a stored procedure is removed from the cache, the cor­responding row is eliminated from this view. At that time, a Performance Statistics SQL trace event is raised similar to sys.dm_exec_query_stats.

This DMV is new to SQL Server 2008 so you can use it only in SQL Server 2008 onwards. You can get similar data out of sys.dm_exec_cached_plans, which will work on SQL Server 2005. This DMV allows you to discover a lot of very interesting and important performance information about your cached stored procedures.

Query 1 : Details of cached procedures

SELECT CASE WHEN DATABASE_ID = 32767 THEN ‘RESOURCE’ ELSE DB_NAME(DATABASE_ID)END AS DBNAME

,OBJECT_SCHEMA_NAME(OBJECT_ID,DATABASE_ID) AS [SCHEMA_NAME]

,OBJECT_NAME(OBJECT_ID,DATABASE_ID)AS [OBJECT_NAME]

,*

FROM SYS.DM_EXEC_PROCEDURE_STATS

Query 2 : Details of procedure with total & average CPU, logical reads , logical writes & physical reads

SELECT CASE WHEN DATABASE_ID = 32767 THEN ‘RESOURCE’ ELSE DB_NAME(DATABASE_ID)END AS DBNAME

,OBJECT_SCHEMA_NAME(OBJECT_ID,DATABASE_ID) AS [SCHEMA_NAME]

,OBJECT_NAME(OBJECT_ID,DATABASE_ID)AS [OBJECT_NAME]

,CACHED_TIME

,LAST_EXECUTION_TIME

,EXECUTION_COUNT

,TOTAL_WORKER_TIME / EXECUTION_COUNT AS AVG_CPU

,TOTAL_ELAPSED_TIME / EXECUTION_COUNT AS AVG_ELAPSED

,TOTAL_LOGICAL_READS

,TOTAL_LOGICAL_READS / EXECUTION_COUNT AS AVG_LOGICAL_READS

,TOTAL_LOGICAL_WRITES

,TOTAL_LOGICAL_WRITES / EXECUTION_COUNT AS AVG_LOGICAL_WRITES

,TOTAL_PHYSICAL_READS

,TOTAL_PHYSICAL_READS / EXECUTION_COUNT AS AVG_PHYSICAL_READS

FROM SYS.DM_EXEC_PROCEDURE_STATS

ORDER BY AVG_LOGICAL_READS DESC

Remarks

1. User required VIEW SERVER STATE permission on the server.

2. This DMV will capture the details of 3 objects types :
