Answer / guest
First check the processor and memory usage to see that
processor is not above 80% utilization and memory not above
40-45% utilization then check the disk utilization using
Performance Monitor, Secondly, use SQL Profiler to check for
the users and current SQL activities and jobs running which
might be a problem. Third would be to run UPDATE_STATISTICS
command to update the indexes

we can check for the cpu utilization from the task manager
and if it above 80% then we have to check the status of
indexes or we can say we have to recreate the statics as
well as indexes.
there are many other factors but in production servers
indexing causes a great performance enhancement.Also we
have to check whether large I/o operations are not
hindering the performance.
