Fast analysis provides base-level analysis information, including statistics about logical order fragmentation. Logical order fragmentation occurs when the physical order of pages does not match the logical order of the pages. A fast analysis runs five to eight times quicker than a thorough analysis because SQL Defrag Manager does not scan the leaf pages of an index. Therefore, SQL Defrag Manager does not gather page density information during a fast analysis. You can perform a fast analysis on a database that is in use , because it consumes less time and resources than a thorough analysis.
