Continue reading ...This DMV will show the actual queries sorted by highest execution count since the last time SQL Server was restarted. These queries could be either adhoc or queries that reside within stored procedures. These are important because often times optimizing these will yield huge results in performance. In order to find specific procedures that have been executed a lot, refer to the Most Executed Procedures DMV.

What shows up from this query is the procedures whose wait times cannot be explained by looking at the total CPU cycles. While this will mostly infer blocking, it doesn’t necessarily guarantee that’s the issue. It can also show procedures that suffer from other wait types (disk, network, clr, parallelism, etc).
