Our SQL 2000 DB runs on a Win 2K Server, which is a PIII, 500 MHz machine, 
having 512 MB RAM and 30 GB Hard Drive.

There is an application that searches for keyword matches in our database, 
and calls a stored procedure to perform the actual query. The tables being 
used are small, approx 12,000 rows each, and one of the columns is a text 
type column, with a full-text search index on it.

I find that a single keyword search pushes up my CPU utilisation to 100% 
for 1-2 seconds, and a search on a number of keywords can push CPU usage to 
100% for nearly 30 seconds. Even given that my query is fairly complex, 
involves a wildcard search on many columns,  and uses
a full-text search index on one of the columns, should performance be so 
poor given the hardware configuration I have ?

Vishal.
