I've got a 15Gb database and Sql Server 2014. When in visual studio I try 'update model from database' it hangs. Sql profiler showed sql that VS launched and that was very slow. The part of sql and execution plan below. In execution plan the culprit seems to be sys.sysschobjs table which takes 6% in many places (one is showed). The interesting part is that sql uses only these tables
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.VIEWS
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE
all of which fairly small (largest has 1798 records), but the query itself takes 51 minutes. Any ideas on how to fix that would be appreciated.
EDIT I suspect that sys.sysschobjs indexes need to be rebuild. Should I do that taken that it's a system table?
