Hello,

I have a table which when i execute a select statement the execution lucks performance. The table currently has 1000 rows.

Table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Listings](
[ListingID] [int] NOT NULL,
[UserID] [int] NOT NULL,
[NodeID] [int] NOT NULL,
[Title] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[Description] [varchar](500) NOT NULL,
[Keywords] [varchar](200) NOT NULL,
[URL] [varchar](150) NOT NULL,
[DateSubmited] [datetime] NOT NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]



Even a simple sql statement without any where clause will take 3 seconds to execute.

select LISTINGID, TITLE, DESCRIPTION from listings



Is there anyway to improve that?

Thanks in advance.

Create appropriate indexes and restrict your queries for better performance. Otherwise you are looking at a table scan which is the worst case.
