Monitoring Query Performance

Is there any table in SQL Server 2000 which lists the queries currently
cached in memory and statistics on those queries e.g. execution time, number
of executions cost, etc. I would like to be able to determine the queries
that have the highest cost to target for performance tuning first.Not really. You have some information in master..syscacheobjects, but that a
re only the cached plans
(those that are cached in the first place, of course). You can have a profil
er trace running to pick
up the measures you are interested in and to your tuning based on that profi
ler trace.
