Prioritizing queries for tuning with extended events
If you experience general performance problems in your system, besides trying to find and fix the bottlenecks, a common thing to do is to tune queries to be more efficient. The tricky part is that if you have lots of query patterns in the system, it’s not realistic to try and tune them all. You want to prioritize the queries for tuning so that you can spend more time on cases that, when tuned, will have a bigger impact on the system as a whole.
