Hi Jes! Thanks for the webcast — you guys at Brent Ozar PLF really do inspire me to learn as much as I can about SQL. The info about SQL 2012 was particularly useful for me. Looking forward to seeing more from you in the future.
I have once question form the script. The script which was using sys.dm_os_memory_cache_entries, uses the count(pages_allocated_count) for finding out the memory utilization for that type. If you look into the DMV there are entries with have more than once pages and for many enteries this value is zero so even if we change this to SUM, it might not be a proper value. This is a INT field and so can’t take fractional value. Actully this leads to different outupt form this query for object and ad-hoc plan cache size comared to output from DBCC MEMORYSTATUS. Are you getting the same difference I am getting, or I am looking into some worng filds?
Jes,
I really enjoy the information, but now, here is my next question. It’s cool we now have all this information and now know how to retrieve it, but what is it that we are looking for to determine if problems truly exist.
There’s a link on this page where you download the .zip file.
I think the link is a bit hard to see based on your comment and one other. I just added a description to the file to help make the link easier to see on the page. Hope that helps.

A great resource to learn about what issues to look for, and how to troubleshoot them, is the book “Troubleshooting SQL Server: A Guide for the Accidental DBA“.
