this database has been freshly restored from a backup so i guess from what you have said that would rule out the compacting being required.
To give some more of an idea of the issue the tables that are being affected are used to store financial transactions, one table contains 7.7 million rows, the storage cost is 3.9gb for the data, and 16.4gb for the indexing. This amount of data is resulting in very slow processing of even simple select queries, and my thoughts are that to resolve the problem some kind of archiving needs to be implemented.
This is probably a dumb question but do the data types being indexed have a direct affect on the storage space required for the indexing. i.e. would indexing a column of the type guid be significantly more storage intensive than an int column.
Sorry if the question is overly simple, i've worked with sql databases in the past and never seen storage requirements even close to this.
