In the scenario where SQL queries are running slower post-migration, creating multiple TempDB data files is a recognized best practice for optimizing SQL Server performance, especially when dealing with high transaction rates or complex queries. This approach helps in distributing the I/O load across multiple files and drives, reducing the contention and wait times associated with TempDB, which is a common bottleneck in SQL Server environments. Enabling autogrowth ensures that these files can dynamically grow as needed, which helps in handling unexpected increases in database activity without manual intervention.References: Nutanix Best Practices for SQL Server, SQL Server performance tuning guidelines.
