Thanks for a great post.

I just want to add my experience. GO n or using WHILE for inserting data is much slower then using set based solution:
[CODE]
INSERT INTO SampleData(SomeData)
SELECT TOP 100000 ‘This is my sample data’
FROM
[master].[dbo].[spt_values] t1
CROSS JOIN
[master].[dbo].[spt_values] t2
[/CODE]

Have a nice day
Jan
