Suggested Approach

When you address performance issues, follow a deliberate approach: Make a single change at a time, evaluates the impact of that change, and then continue on with the next change. Before you make a change, you should develop a plan to recover from the change should unintended consequences ensue.

NOTE:  As you start taking actions to improve performance, the initial actions can be dramatic and come at a relatively small cost. As a consequence, later actions will be less dramatic and require much more effort. Performance tuning is a balancing act. A change that improves the performance of one area may adversely impact the performance of another area. You should evaluate the overall impact of a change based on your requirements. For example, adding new indexes or aggregate tables may help in improving the performance of a report but may also slow down ETL processing time.
