Dear Experts,

Could SQL server allocate resource evenly for each incoming query?
Because sometimes when one user perform a long running query (eg. over one
hour) , it seems other query were suspended and make its related application
timeout/waiting....

Can SQL Server 2008 tune on this ?

Thanks.

You could use the Resource Governor for this. However, this feature is
only available in Enterprise Edition.
