在SQL Server 2005中，有两种方法可以创建临时表:
declare @tmp table (Col1 int, Col2 int);
or
create table #tmp (Col1 int, Col2 int);
这两者之间有什么区别?关于@tmp是否仍然使用tempdb，或者是否所有事情都发生在内存中，我读过相互矛盾的意见。
在哪些情况下，一个会优于另一个?

Statistics The major difference between temp tables and table variables is that statistics are not created on table variables. This has two major consequences, the fi rst of which is that the Query Optimizer uses a fi xed estimation for the number of rows in a table variable irrespective of the data it contains. Moreover, adding or removing data doesn’t change the estimation. Indexes You can’t create indexes on table variables although you can create constraints. This means that by creating primary keys or unique constraints, you can have indexes (as these are created to support constraints) on table variables. Even if you have constraints, and therefore indexes that will have statistics, the indexes will not be used when the query is compiled because they won’t exist at compile time, nor will they cause recompilations. Schema Modifications Schema modifications are possible on temporary tables but not on table variables. Although schema modifi cations are possible on temporary tables, avoid using them because they cause recompilations of statements that use the tables.
表变量不是在内存中创建的
有一种常见的误解，认为表变量是内存中的结构 这样会比临时表执行得更快。多亏了车管所 叫做sys。“Dm _ db _ session _ space _ usage”，显示tempdb的使用情况 塞申斯，你可以证明事实并非如此。重新启动SQL Server后清除 DMV，运行以下脚本确认您的session _ id返回0 User _ objects _ alloc _ page _ count:
SELECT session_id,
database_id,
user_objects_alloc_page_count
FROM sys.dm_db_session_space_usage
WHERE session_id > 50 ;
现在可以通过运行以下命令检查临时表使用了多少空间 脚本创建一个只有一列的临时表，并用一行填充它:
CREATE TABLE #TempTable ( ID INT ) ;
INSERT INTO #TempTable ( ID )
VALUES ( 1 ) ;
GO
SELECT session_id,
database_id,
user_objects_alloc_page_count
FROM sys.dm_db_session_space_usage
WHERE session_id > 50 ;
服务器上的结果表明该表在tempdb中分配了一个页面。 现在运行相同的脚本，但是使用一个表变量 这一次:
DECLARE @TempTable TABLE ( ID INT ) ;
INSERT INTO @TempTable ( ID )
VALUES ( 1 ) ;
GO
SELECT session_id,
database_id,
user_objects_alloc_page_count
FROM sys.dm_db_session_space_usage
WHERE session_id > 50 ;
用哪一个?
Whether or not you use temporary tables or table variables should be decided by thorough testing, but it’s best to lean towards temporary tables as the default because there are far fewer things that can go wrong. I’ve seen customers develop code using table variables because they were dealing with a small amount of rows, and it was quicker than a temporary table, but a few years later there were hundreds of thousands of rows in the table variable and performance was terrible, so try and allow for some capacity planning when you make your decision!

@wcm -实际上nit选择表变量不只是Ram -它可以部分存储在磁盘上。
临时表可以有索引，而表变量只能有主索引。如果速度是一个问题，表变量可以更快，但显然如果有很多记录，或者需要搜索聚集索引的临时表，那么临时表将更好。
好的背景文章
只要看看公认答案中的声明，即表变量不参与日志记录。
通常情况下，似乎不存在日志记录数量上的差异(至少对于表本身的插入/更新/删除操作而言是如此，尽管后来我发现由于额外的系统表更新，存储过程中缓存的临时对象在这方面存在一些小差异)。
在下面的操作中，我观察了@table_variable和#temp表的日志记录行为。
成功的插入 多行插入语句因违反约束而回滚的位置。 更新 删除 释放
所有操作的事务日志记录几乎相同。
表变量版本实际上有一些额外的日志条目，因为它将一个条目添加到sys. log中(然后从sys. log中删除)。Syssingleobjrefs基本表，但总的来说记录的字节更少，因为表变量的内部名称比#temp表少消耗236个字节(少118个nvarchar字符)。

在SQL中，临时表存储在TempDB中，本地临时表只在当前会话中可见，在另一个会话中不可见。这可以在嵌套存储过程调用之间共享。全局临时表对所有其他会话可见，当最后一个连接引用表关闭时，它们将被销毁。例如,
Select Dept.DeptName, Dept.DeptId, COUNT(*) as TotalEmployees
into #TempEmpCount
from Tbl_EmpDetails Emp
join Tbl_Dept Dept
on Emp.DeptId = Dept.DeptId
group by DeptName, Dept.DeptId
表变量类似于tempTables，表变量也是在TempDB中创建的。表变量的作用域是声明表变量的批处理、存储过程或语句块。它们可以作为过程之间的参数传递。同样的查询可以使用Table变量by来编写
Declare @tblEmployeeCount table
(DeptName nvarchar(20),DeptId int, TotalEmployees int)
Insert @tblEmployeeCount
Select DeptName, Tbl_Dept.DeptId, COUNT(*) as TotalEmployees
from Tbl_EmpDetails
join Tbl_Dept
on Tbl_EmpDetails.DeptId = Tbl_Dept.DeptId
group by DeptName, Tbl_Dept.DeptId
还要考虑到，您通常可以用派生表来替换这两个表，这也可能更快。但是，与所有性能调优一样，只有针对实际数据的实际测试才能告诉您特定查询的最佳方法。
对于所有相信临时变量只存在于内存中的人
首先，表变量不一定存在于内存中。在内存压力下，属于表变量的页可以被推到tempdb。
