PAGEIOLATCH_EX

Environment:

• SQL Server 2000 sp3
• 8 CPUs
• Auto Statistics option is ON
• Simple Recovery Mode

Issue:

• Running a batch of INSERT statements that has been running for a very long time during development of a migration tool

Some diagnostic

• SELECT * FROM sysprocesses WHERE spid = 53

I am aware that ecid = 0 corresponds to the parent thread.

QUESTION: Does this look OK?

Thanks for your help.
