Prmary Indexes have a lot more to do with I/O than most people think. You
really have to understand how a database stores the physical data on rows
and columns. The biggest index killer is Clustered Indexes. Among other
things those type of indexes take longer to execute. Why? Because the
database takes and reorders all the data for Index 1 - Index Infinite.
Regular indexes (standard) do not do so. Also Heape Indexes well, just so to
speak slap the data to screen and just don't care what the order it is. Can
add in Foreign Keys Relations also.

This can be verified by digging way deep into your db documentation. Then
you can actually exec queries to pull the raw data Pages from the database.

Bill, you're the first one I have herd say this in some time.

Among other things is the DB running in memory? Is the DB making temp tables
in memory and then dropping them.
