Remarks

Types of Waits

  • Resource waits
    Resource waits occur when a worker requests access to a resource that is not available because the resource is being used by some other worker or is not yet available. Examples of resource waits are locks, latches, network and disk I/O waits. Lock and latch waits are waits on synchronization objects

  • Queue waits
    Queue waits occur when a worker is idle, waiting for work to be assigned. Queue waits are most typically seen with system background tasks such as the deadlock monitor and deleted record cleanup tasks. These tasks will wait for work requests to be placed into a work queue. Queue waits may also periodically become active even if no new packets have been put on the queue.

  • External waits
    External waits occur when a SQL Server worker is waiting for an external event, such as an extended stored procedure call or a linked server query, to finish. When you diagnose blocking issues, remember that external waits do not always imply that the worker is idle, because the worker may actively be running some external code.

sys.dm_os_wait_stats shows the time for waits that have completed. This dynamic management view does not show current waits.

A SQL Server worker thread is not considered to be waiting if any of the following is true:

  • A resource becomes available.

  • A queue is nonempty.

  • An external process finishes.

Although the thread is no longer waiting, the thread does not have to start running immediately. This is because such a thread is first put on the queue of runnable workers and must wait for a quantum to run on the scheduler.

In SQL Server the wait-time counters are bigint values and therefore are not as prone to counter rollover as the equivalent counters in earlier versions of SQL Server.

Specific types of wait times during query execution can indicate bottlenecks or stall points within the query. Similarly, high wait times, or wait counts server wide can indicate bottlenecks or hot spots in interaction query interactions within the server instance. For example, lock waits indicate data contention by queries; page IO latch waits indicate slow IO response times; page latch update waits indicate incorrect file layout.

The contents of this dynamic management view can be reset by running the following command:

DBCC SQLPERF ('sys.dm_os_wait_stats', CLEAR);
GO

This command resets all counters to 0.

Note

These statistics are not persisted across SQL Server restarts, and all data is cumulative since the last time the statistics were reset or the server was started.

The following table lists the wait types encountered by tasks.

Wait type

Description

ABR

Identified for informational purposes only. Not supported. Future compatibility is not guaranteed.

ASSEMBLY_LOAD

Occurs during exclusive access to assembly loading.

ASYNC_DISKPOOL_LOCK

Occurs when there is an attempt to synchronize parallel threads that are performing tasks such as creating or initializing a file.

ASYNC_IO_COMPLETION

Occurs when a task is waiting for I/Os to finish.

ASYNC_NETWORK_IO

Occurs on network writes when the task is blocked behind the network. Verify that the client is processing data from the server.

AUDIT_GROUPCACHE_LOCK

Occurs when there is a wait on a lock that controls access to a special cache. The cache contains information about which audits are being used to audit each audit action group.

AUDIT_LOGINCACHE_LOCK

Occurs when there is a wait on a lock that controls access to a special cache. The cache contains information about which audits are being used to audit login audit action groups.

AUDIT_ON_DEMAND_TARGET_LOCK

Occurs when there is a wait on a lock that is used to ensure single initialization of audit related Extended Event targets.

AUDIT_XE_SESSION_MGR

Occurs when there is a wait on a lock that is used to synchronize the starting and stopping of audit related Extended Events sessions.

BACKUP

Occurs when a task is blocked as part of backup processing.

BACKUP_OPERATOR

Occurs when a task is waiting for a tape mount. To view the tape status, query sys.dm_io_backup_tapes. If a mount operation is not pending, this wait type may indicate a hardware problem with the tape drive.

BACKUPBUFFER

Occurs when a backup task is waiting for data, or is waiting for a buffer in which to store data. This type is not typical, except when a task is waiting for a tape mount.

BACKUPIO

Occurs when a backup task is waiting for data, or is waiting for a buffer in which to store data. This type is not typical, except when a task is waiting for a tape mount.

BACKUPTHREAD

Occurs when a task is waiting for a backup task to finish. Wait times may be long, from several minutes to several hours. If the task that is being waited on is in an I/O process, this type does not indicate a problem.

BAD_PAGE_PROCESS

Occurs when the background suspect page logger is trying to avoid running more than every five seconds. Excessive suspect pages cause the logger to run frequently.

BROKER_CONNECTION_RECEIVE_TASK

Occurs when waiting for access to receive a message on a connection endpoint. Receive access to the endpoint is serialized.

Each Service Broker (and Database Mirroring) connection endpoint has a list of buffers that receive data from the network. There are two threads that process the list. One thread posts buffers to receive data, and the other thread processes the buffers after they receive the data. Specifically, this wait type occurs when the threads try to access the list to add or remove buffers.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • waiting_tasks_count and wait_time_ms should both be proportional to the amount of network data that is received by all Service Broker (and Database Mirroring) connection endpoints. 

  • avg_wait_time_ms should be a very small value.

BROKER_ENDPOINT_STATE_MUTEX

Occurs when there is contention to access the state of a Service Broker or Database Mirroring connection endpoint. Access to the state for changes is serialized.

Specifically, this wait type occurs under the following conditions:

  • Every time there is a state change for a Service Broker or Database Mirroring connection endpoint during the connection establishment (or "handshake") phase. 

  • Every time that the sys.dm_broker_connections or the sys.dm_db_mirroring_connections dynamic management view (DMV) is queried to serialize access to each connection's handshake state. Be aware that in this case, the wait type occurs for each connection endpoint.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • avg_wait_time_ms should be very small.

  • Both the wait_time_ms and waiting_tasks_count values should be proportional to the number of times that Service Broker or Database Mirroring establishes a connection with another instance of SQL Server, and the number of times that the sys.dm_broker_connections or sys.dm_db_mirroring_connections DMV is queried.

  • If the wait_time_ms and waiting_tasks_count values quickly increase, this could indicate very frequent connection establishment and teardown. Because the Service Broker transport tears down connections after approximately 90 seconds of inactivity, these values can increase if applications use Service Broker one time approximately every 90 seconds.

BROKER_EVENTHANDLER

Occurs when a task is waiting in the Service Broker primary event handler for any of the following:

  • instance startup or shutdown

  • dialog timer events (such as dialog timeouts)

  • mirrored route timeouts

This wait type should occur very briefly.

Each instance of SQL Server has a primary event handler thread for processing Service Broker startup, shutdown, and timer events. This thread always exists, and is either waiting for or processing these events.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • wait_time_ms should be approximately equal to the interval since the instance of SQL Server started.

  • waiting_tasks_count indicates the number of times that the primary event handler had to wait because there are no events to process.

Neither of these fields indicate a performance issue.

If Service Broker is not being used (either directly or through Database Mail or event notification), you should see the following:

  • max_wait_time_ms and wait_time_ms will be approximately the same.

  • waiting_tasks_count will be a very small value.

BROKER_INIT

Occurs when initializing Service Broker in each active database. This should occur infrequently.

This wait type occurs every time that Service Broker fails to initialize internal broker managers for any database. Service Broker waits approximately 1 second before it performs a retry for the same database.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • waiting_tasks_count is the number of times that Service Broker failed to initialize the broker on any database. High or increasing values of waiting_tasks_count indicate a problem with the instance of SQL Server.

  • wait_time_ms should be proportional to waiting_tasks_count.

  • avg_wait_time_ms should be approximately 1 second.

BROKER_MASTERSTART

Occurs when a task is waiting for the primary event handler of the Service Broker to start. This should occur very briefly during instance startup, when Service Broker waits for the master database to start.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • waiting_tasks_count should be 1.

  • wait_time_ms should be very small.

BROKER_RECEIVE_WAITFOR

Occurs when the RECEIVE WAITFOR is waiting. This is typical if no messages are ready to be received.

This wait type occurs one time per WAITFOR RECEIVE Transact-SQL statement, where the statement execution waits for messages to arrive in the user queue.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • waiting_tasks_count is the same as the number of times that the WAITFOR RECEIVE statement has been executed.

  • wait_time_ms should be the total time that the execution of the statements had to wait before messages arrived, or the WAITFOR time-out for each WAITFOR RECEIVE statement.

If avg_wait_time_ms is much higher than expected, check the error log and SQL Server Profiler events on both the initiator and the target server instances for potential problems.

BROKER_REGISTERALLENDPOINTS

Occurs during the initialization of a Service Broker or Database Mirroring connection endpoint. This wait type should occur very briefly during instance startup, when Service Broker waits for all endpoint types to be registered.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • waiting_tasks_count should be 1.

  • wait_time_ms should be very small.

BROKER_SERVICE

Occurs when the Service Broker next hop destination list that is associated with a target service/broker instance pair is updated or re-prioritized because of the addition or removal of a dialog to the instance pair. 

Service Broker sends messages to these next hop destinations in order of their priority. Therefore, access to the destination list and their effective priority changes is serialized.

When you interpret the values for this wait type, use the following guidelines:

  • waiting_tasks_count and wait_time_ms indicate the number of times that Service Broker had to serialize access to these internal structures.

  • avg_wait_time_ms should be very small.

BROKER_SHUTDOWN

Occurs when there is a planned shutdown of Service Broker. This wait type should occur very briefly, if at all.

waiting_tasks_count and wait_time_ms should both be 0 unless instance shutdown has already started. During instance shutdown, Service Broker waits a few seconds for its primary event handler and all connection endpoints to shut down.

BROKER_TASK_STOP

Occurs when one of the Service Broker queue task handlers stops because there are no internal tasks. The task handler waits for a maximum of 10 seconds before it is destroyed, in case it has to be restarted to run a task.

Service Broker has several task handlers that are used to execute internal tasks related to the transmission of messages, asynchronous network operations, and to the processing of received messages.

In a heavy usage scenario, the values for both waiting_tasks_count and wait_time_ms should be small.

Every 5 seconds, Service Broker schedules an internal cleanup task. This task does not do much work when Service Broker is not being used. However, it causes one of the task handlers to wake up, restart, execute the task and then start waiting. Therefore, if Service Broker is not being used, you should see the following values:

  • waiting_tasks_count and wait_time_ms should keep increasing, proportional to the time interval since the instance of SQL Server started. 

  • avg_wait_time_ms should be close to 5 seconds.

BROKER_TO_FLUSH

Occurs when the Service Broker lazy flusher flushes the in-memory transmission objects to a work table. A transmission object is an in-memory object that manages and records the state of message transmissions for a dialog.

For performance reasons, Service Broker maintains all transmission objects in memory and in temporary tables on disk. Every time that a transmission object is updated, it is scheduled to be flushed to a temporary table in tempdb. Service Broker uses an "always live" lazy flusher task for this job.

If Service Broker is not being used, you should see the following values:

  • wait_time_ms and waiting_tasks_count should be proportional to the time interval since the instance of SQL Server started.

  • avg_wait_time_ms should be approximately 1 second.

When Service Broker is under heavy use, these columns should have low values because the lazy flusher will be busy.

BROKER_TRANSMITTER

Occurs when the Service Broker transmitter threads are waiting for dialog messages to be sent.

The transmitter schedules messages from multiple dialogs that will be sent over the network through one or more connection endpoints. The transmitter uses two dedicated threads for this purpose.

High values of waiting_tasks_count indicate that the threads have intermittent work. This does not indicate a performance problem.

If Service Broker is not being used, you should see the following values:

  • waiting_tasks_count should be 2 (for the two transmitter threads).

  • wait_time_ms should be two times the duration since the instance of SQL Server started.

BUILTIN_HASHKEY_MUTEX

May occur after startup of instance, while internal data structures are initializing. Will not recur once data structures have initialized.

CHECK_PRINT_RECORD

Identified for informational purposes only. Not supported. Future compatibility is not guaranteed.

CHECKPOINT_QUEUE

Occurs while the checkpoint task is waiting for the next checkpoint request.

CHKPT

Occurs at server startup to tell the checkpoint thread that it can start.

CLEAR_DB

Occurs during operations that change the state of a database, such as opening or closing a database.

CLR_AUTO_EVENT

Occurs when a task is currently performing common language runtime (CLR) execution and is waiting for a particular autoevent to be initiated. Long waits are typical, and do not indicate a problem.

CLR_CRST

Occurs when a task is currently performing CLR execution and is waiting to enter a critical section of the task that is currently being used by another task.

CLR_JOIN

Occurs when a task is currently performing CLR execution and waiting for another task to end. This wait state occurs when there is a join between tasks.

CLR_MANUAL_EVENT

Occurs when a task is currently performing CLR execution and is waiting for a specific manual event to be initiated.

CLR_MEMORY_SPY

Occurs during a wait on lock acquisition for a data structure that is used to record all virtual memory allocations that come from CLR. The data structure is locked to maintain its integrity if there is parallel access.

CMEMTHREAD

Occurs when a task is waiting on a thread-safe memory object. The wait time might increase when there is contention caused by multiple tasks trying to allocate memory from the same memory object.

CXPACKET

Occurs when trying to synchronize the query processor exchange iterator. You may consider lowering the degree of parallelism if contention on this wait type becomes a problem.

CXROWSET_SYNC

Occurs during a parallel range scan.

DBMIRRORING_CMD

Occurs when a task is waiting for log records to be flushed to disk. This wait state is expected to be held for long periods of time.

DEADLOCK_ENUM_MUTEX

Occurs when the deadlock monitor and sys.dm_os_waiting_tasks try to make sure that SQL Server is not running multiple deadlock searches at the same time.

DEADLOCK_TASK_SEARCH

Large waiting time on this resource indicates that the server is executing queries on top of sys.dm_os_waiting_tasks, and these queries are blocking deadlock monitor from running deadlock search. This wait type is used by deadlock monitor only. Queries on top of sys.dm_os_waiting_tasks use DEADLOCK_ENUM_MUTEX.

DEBUG

Occurs during Transact-SQL and CLR debugging for internal synchronization.

DISABLE_VERSIONING

Occurs when SQL Server polls the version transaction manager to see whether the timestamp of the earliest active transaction is later than the timestamp of when the state started changing.

This wait state is used when SQL Server disables versioning by using the ALTER DATABASE statement.

DISKIO_SUSPEND

Occurs when a task is waiting to access a file when an external backup is active. This is reported for each waiting user process. A count larger than five per user process may indicate that the external backup is taking too much time to finish.

DTC_RESOLVE

Occurs when a recovery task is waiting for the master database in a cross-database transaction so that the task can query the outcome of the transaction.

DTC_STATE

Occurs when a task is waiting on an event that protects changes to the internal MS DTC global state object. This state should be held for very short periods of time.

DTC_TMDOWN_REQUEST

Occurs in a MS DTC worker session when SQL Server receives notification that the MS DTC service is not available. First, the worker will wait for the MS DTC recovery process to start. Then, the worker waits to obtain the outcome of the distributed transaction that the worker is working on. This may continue until the connection with the MS DTC service has been reestablished.

DTC_WAITFOR_OUTCOME

Occurs when recovery tasks wait for MS DTC to become active to enable the resolution of prepared transactions.

DUMP_LOG_COORDINATOR

Occurs when a main task is waiting for a subtask to generate data. Ordinarily, this state does not occur. A long wait indicates an unexpected blockage. The subtask should be investigated.

Occurs when SQL Server waits for all update transactions in this database to finish before declaring the database ready to transition to snapshot isolation allowed state. This state is used when SQL Server enables snapshot isolation by using the ALTER DATABASE statement.

ERROR_REPORTING_MANAGER

Occurs during synchronization of multiple concurrent error log initializations.

EXCHANGE

Occurs during synchronization in the query processor exchange iterator during parallel queries.

EXECSYNC

Occurs during parallel queries while synchronizing in query processor in areas not related to the exchange iterator. Examples of such areas are bitmaps, large binary objects (LOBs), and the spool iterator. LOBs may frequently use this wait state.
