Calculate Diskspace Used by a Table or Database
By James Crowley, published on 30 Jan 2005
Ever wondered how much storage space a particular table in your SQL Server database takes up? It's actually *really* easy to find out! Simply do
EXEC sp_spaceused 'tablename'
where tablename is the table you're interested in, and you'll get back something that looks like this:
| names | rows | reserved | data | index_size | unused |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| dir_pages |
4308 | 13088 KB | 12928 KB | 88 KB | 72 KB |
If you omit the 'tablename' parameter, then you'll get back two resultsets with information about the entire database:
| database_name | database_size | unallocated space |
|---|---|---|
| devfusion |
11248.69 MB | 18.52 MB |
| reserved | data | index_size | unused |
|---|---|---|---|
| 87856 KB | 81232 KB | 5152 KB | 1472 KB |
