When you should use a low fill factor?..

Answer / Shashwat Gupta

A lower fill factor is used when you want to reduce contention for page allocation, allowing new pages to be inserted more quickly. It's also useful when data grows unevenly or when the table will have frequent bulk inserts. However, a lower fill factor increases the overhead of maintaining the database and can lead to more fragmentation.
