7 TraceCheck Generic

This document provides instructions for analyzing a SQL Server trace file to identify performance issues. It loads trace data into a temporary table, calculates metrics like average and maximum reads, CPU, and duration for each query, and identifies the most expensive queries based on total read cost. It then calculates the latency between subsequent query events to identify blocking or delays. Finally, it returns detailed trace data ordered by event sequence for further analysis.
