sys.dm_db_xtp_memory_consumers (Transact-SQL)

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance

Reports the database-level memory consumers in the In-Memory OLTP database engine. The view returns a row for each memory consumer that the database engine uses. Use this DMV to see how the memory is distributed across different internal objects.

For more information, see In-Memory OLTP overview and usage scenarios.

Note

The output of this system dynamic management view may be different, depending on the version of SQL Server installed.

Column name Data type Description
memory_consumer_id bigint ID (internal) of the memory consumer.
memory_consumer_type int The type of memory consumer:

0 = Aggregation. (Aggregates memory usage of two or more consumers. It shouldn't be displayed.)

2 = VARHEAP (Tracks memory consumption for a variable-length heap.)

3 = HASH (Tracks memory consumption for an index.)

4 = PGPOOL (DB page pool: Tracks memory consumption for a database page pool used for runtime operations. For example, table variables and some serializable scans. There is only one memory consumer of this type per database.)
memory_consumer_type_desc nvarchar(64) Type of memory consumer: VARHEAP, HASH, or PGPOOL.

0 - (Shouldn't be displayed)
2 - VARHEAP
3 - HASH
4 - PGPOOL
memory_consumer_desc nvarchar(64) Description of the memory consumer instance. For more information, review the table that follows.
object_id bigint The object ID to which the allocated memory is attributed. A negative value for system objects.
xtp_object_id bigint The In-Memory OLTP object ID that corresponds to the memory-optimized table.
index_id int The index ID of the consumer (if any). NULL for base tables.
allocated_bytes bigint Number of bytes reserved for this consumer.
used_bytes bigint Bytes used by this consumer. Applies only to VARHEAP.
allocation_count int Number of allocations.
partition_count int Internal use only.
sizeclass_count int Internal use only.
min_sizeclass int Internal use only.
max_sizeclass int Internal use only.
memory_consumer_address varbinary Internal address of the consumer. For internal use only.

The following table describes the memory consumers specified in the memory_consumer_type column:

Memory consumer Description Type
256K page pool Memory pool used during checkpoint activity. PGPOOL
4K page pool Memory pool used during checkpoint activity. PGPOOL
Checkpoint table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Ckpt file table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Ckpt file watermark table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Database internal heap Used to allocate database data that are included in memory dumps, and don't include user data. VARHEAP
Database user heap Used to allocate user data for a database (rows). VARHEAP
Encryption table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Hash index Tracks memory consumption for an index. The object_id indicates the table and the index_id of the hash index itself. HASH
Large Rows File table Internal use only. VARHEAP
LOB Page Allocator Heap memory used by large rows. VARHEAP
Logical range index partition table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Logical root fragment table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Logical Root table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Logical Sequence Object table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Physical range index partition table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Physical root fragment table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Physical Root table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Physical Sequence object table Internal use only. VARHEAP
Range index heap Private heap used by range index to allocate Bw-tree pages. VARHEAP
Storage internal heap Internal use only. VARHEAP
Storage user heap Internal use only. VARHEAP
Table heap Heap memory used by In-Memory tables. VARHEAP
Tail cache 256K page pool Internal use only. PGPOOL
Tx Segment table Internal use only. VARHEAP

Remarks

When a memory-optimized table has a columnstore index, the system uses some internal tables, which consume some memory, to track data for the columnstore index. For details about these internal tables and sample queries showing their memory consumption, see sys.memory_optimized_tables_internal_attributes (Transact-SQL).

Permissions

All rows are returned if you have VIEW DATABASE STATE permission on the current database. Otherwise, an empty rowset is returned.

If you don't have VIEW DATABASE permission, all columns are returned for rows in tables that you have SELECT permission on.

On SQL Server 2019 (15.x) and previous versions, system tables are returned only for users with VIEW DATABASE STATE permission.

For SQL Server 2022 (16.x) and later versions, you require VIEW DATABASE PERFORMANCE STATE permission on the database.

Examples

Query memory consumers in the current database

Run the following query against the sample WideWorldImporters database, which contains memory-optimized tables:

SELECT CONVERT(CHAR(10), OBJECT_NAME(object_id)) AS Name,
    memory_consumer_type_desc,
    memory_consumer_desc,
    object_id,
    index_id,
    allocated_bytes,
    used_bytes
FROM sys.dm_db_xtp_memory_consumers;

Here's the result set.
