Measures reported by MsSqlLongRunQryTest
This test reports the time taken by each database for executing queries, and also reveals which query is taking too long to execute. This way, resource-intensive queries to a database can be quickly isolated.
Note:
This test reports measures only for Microsoft SQL Server version 2005 and above.
The measures made by this test are as follows:

| Avg_elapsed_time |
The average time taken by queries to execute on this database |

If the value of this measure is very high, it could either indicate that the database is unable to process the queries quickly or that one/more queries to the database are taking too long to execute. Improper indexing and fragmented tables in the database are common causes for slowdowns at the database-level. Besides the above, queries that are improperly structured can also take time to execute. The longer a query executes on the database, higher would be the resource consumption of that query. It is therefore imperative that such resource-intensive queries are quickly isolated and fine-tuned, so as to prevent degradations in the performance of the database server. Using the detailed diagnosis of this measure, you can rapidly identify the resource-intensive queries to the database.
