Consider the following scenario. A server has been running for a while. Then, you run a query in Microsoft SQL Server 2005. In this scenario, the query performance may be slow.
Additionally, when you query the
sys.dm_os_wait_stats dynamic management view, you may notice that there are many rows in which the values of the
wait_type column are SOS_RESERVEDMEMBLOCKLIST or DBCC MEMORYSTATUS. This situation indicates that many multipage allocations exist.
This problem occurs only on 64-bit servers that have more than 16 gigabytes (GB) of physical memory.
