I actually meant “2008R2 SP2” branch (rather than “2008R2” branch), sorry for the typo.

Just wanted to let you know, in case you have not come across that issue, that the CU13 for SQL 2008R2 (which, as Microsoft confirmed, is supposed to be the last CU for this branch) has a bug that essentially subverts RCSI isolation level behavior by making it use locks instead of reading version store.

Here is the link to the relevant Connect item I submitted:

http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/914650/sql2008-r2-sp2-cu12-undermines-rcsi-by-making-select-statements-use-locks-instead-of-reading-row-versions#

As far as I can tell, the latest-known “good” CU in 2008R2 branch, i.e. the CU without this bug, is CU10.

Microsoft has not officially announced that there will not be any more Service Packs for SQL Server (after SQL Server 2012 SP2), but they have been dropping some pretty big hints that they are going to go in that direction. Read this blog post for example:

Are we not getting clear information from them on this?
