Hi,
The sqlsrv.exe process has been consuming a high number of cpu cycles and time and seems not be decreasing at all. Can somebody point me in the right direction as to how to identify the bottleneck and resolve the same at the earliest

Thanks in advance

check your disk que lengths counter in perfmon. Should be <2 per disk spindle. If its very high then your disks are not writing transactions away fast enough...
