Windows Azure Server: From time to time we get excessive wait times when doing either of the following:-- drop database-- restore databaseThe database itself has a large number of FILESTREAM files, but the issue does not appear to be the database but SQL waiting for something. We have the performance improvements in place of Instant File Initialization. The server is not busy, File I/O is low, the server responds normally when running other queries against other databases. Once the server stops waiting, the server continues the drop / restore as normal.We were just restoring the database, but getting the excessive wait, so we added a delete before the restore hoping that would clear things up.We are using premium services on the box; drives, etc ...
