  1. Reading MSDN wp "Using SQL Server 2008 Extended Events" by MVP Jonathan Kehayias aka @SQLSarg http://bit.ly/13aVs9 #sqlpass
  2. @markginnebaugh Lucky you--Burzin "Z-Geek" Patel is a rock star--as are all the @sqlcat members, eh?
  3. Happy T-Day to my tweeps, especially those of the #sqlpass variety
  4. @greglow Señor Greg, ¿quantos dinero para ti 256GB #SSD? <just learned how to do int'l chars ;-)>
  5. Dittos! RT @buckwoody: @SQLChicken Fly me down, baby. I'm all yours. #sqlsaturday32 #sqlpass #sql
  6. @SQLvariant Doing #SSD testing in MTC lab in January. For ntbk, the ~$700 for 250GB makes me pause (& #Win7 on SATA is great) #sqlpass
  7. @ChuckBoyceJr @SQLRockstar @SQLChicken Awesome tweets, gents, you've enhanced my attitude of gratitude in timely fashion
  8. @chuckboycejr @baconfeed @SQLChicken Thanks for DPA kudos. *MANY* geeks contributed, esp. @dennylee & Lindsey Allen from @sqlcat
  9. Dittos RT @AaronBertrand: I hope they throw that Lithuanian guy off 50 foot bridge. Weak stomach? Don't watch. http://is.gd/52gYr
  10. We don’t have a $1T debt because we haven’t taxed enough; we have a $1T debt because we spend too much. --Ronald Reagan
  11. @SQLDBA I had Internals signed by Kalen,Kim,Paul, Adam; Joe Sack's book, 1 Win7, & yes, 1 Vista Ultimate to give away at #sqlpass session
  12. @SQLDBA Just read #sqlpass Day 2 post http://bit.ly/1aG2wc Thanks for kind words (PS I'd've given you Vista if you'd've asked ;-) )
  13. @SQLDBA @SQLDBA @peschkaj I'm satisfied if these are sat'd (esp. the 1st one): Part'n_Offset ÷ Stripe_Unit_Size & Stripe_Unit_Size ÷ FAUS
  14. @SQLSarg Yep, that should work. ;-) Some people try to use the different part'ns, aligned & not, on same spindles. That's apples to oranges.
  15. @SQLSarg When testingDPA diffs, be aware of new vs disks at capacity; short-stroking is also *significant*, 20%-30%
  16. RT @peschkaj: Up yours, GUID fans, we just had a GUID collision in production. I feel vindicated.
  17. @SQLSarg No perf diff for 64K vs. 1024KB DPA--AS LONG AS the correl'n is satisfied: Part'n_Offset ÷ Stripe_Unit_Size==INT
  18. @ChrisLove Dittos!
  19. Holy Correlated Wait Stats! Saracuda brings highest ratings to The #Oprah in two years http://bit.ly/11CART
  20. @peschkaj Dittos re: #sql / #sqlpass speaker tweep
