Guys,

I am running the same query in the same copies of databases on 2 different instances it gives me different time periods
10 secs for on instance A and 90 secs for on instance B. The database on instance B is exact copy/restore of database on instance A.

The execution plans for the query is also same from Instance A and Instance B.

How do I start troubleshooting the performance on the Instance B?

Any suggestions and inputs would help.

Thanks

Do those instances have same system resources? Did you compare i/o statistics?

Are stats updated after restoring database? check if index is fragmented with DBCC showcontig? Otherwise you have rebuild index which will also take care of updating stats.

Numbers don't look like real. Basically, Scan Density should close to 100%.

No pages are scanned. Try with table which are used in joins .
