Does SQL server 2005 Express restrict CPU usage for sqlsrvr.exe? We have a Staff clocking system (timeware) running on SQL server 2005 Express. The server gets pushed when doing recalculations but the CPU usage for sqlsrvr.exe wont exceed 50% despite the rest of the CPU sitting idle. Is the server process restricted by a quota?
Welcome to the forums. SQL Server 2005 Express is limited to one CPU. Do you have more than one? Check: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345154(v=sql.90).aspx
