Question Is there any justification for having a single tempdb database to be used by all databases on a SQL Server intstances?
Despite the fact that I have programmed against SQL Server for quite a while I did not pay much attention to the `tempdb` database.

Currently, there is no consensus about whether to provide tooltips for the voting buttons (especially the downvote one). However, the community now includes quite a lot of questions that attracted downvotes and sometimes this created long debates in comments and flagging. I would like for us to de...

However, the quest...
