SQL SERVER – Finding Queries Using Particular Index

One of the most popular questions I received during my Comprehensive Database Performance Health Check is Finding Queries Using Particular Index. While this looks like a very simple question, it is actually not that simple. Here is the script which can help you to find queries using a particular index. I have blogged about this earlier as well here.

SQL SERVER - Finding Queries Using Particular Index ParticularIndex-800x533

-- Query to identify query using any speicific index
SELECT
SUBSTRING(sqltext.text, (deqs.statement_start_offset / 2) + 1,
(CASE deqs.statement_end_offset
WHEN -1 THEN DATALENGTH(sqltext.text)
ELSE deqs.statement_end_offset
END - deqs.statement_start_offset) / 2 + 1) AS sqltext,
deqs.execution_count,
deqs.total_logical_reads/execution_count AS avg_logical_reads,
deqs.total_logical_writes/execution_count AS avg_logical_writes,
deqs.total_worker_time/execution_count AS avg_cpu_time,
deqs.last_elapsed_time/execution_count AS avg_elapsed_time,
deqs.total_rows/execution_count AS avg_rows,
deqs.creation_time,
deqs.last_execution_time,
CAST(query_plan AS xml) as plan_xml
FROM sys.dm_exec_query_stats as deqs
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_text_query_plan
(deqs.plan_handle, deqs.statement_start_offset, deqs.statement_end_offset)
as detqp
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(deqs.sql_handle) AS sqltext
WHERE
detqp.query_plan like '%Name of Your Index Here%'
ORDER BY deqs.last_execution_time DESC
OPTION (MAXDOP 1, RECOMPILE);
GO

In this query in the WHERE condition, you will have to insert your index name and it will bring out the elaborative result from the plan cache. Please note that plan cache cannot depend on 100%, but it provides information about the queries currently in the cache.
