[dba-SQLServer] query governor cost limit

Hello:

Has anyone ever had experience (good or bad) using the "query governor cost 
limit" option within sql server 2000?

I've got a db dev server with two user databases where one user db has big 
resource-intensive queries running that is affecting the execution of the 
smaller queries in the other database.  I am thinking of using the "query 
governor cost limit" to control this type of "bullying".  (And there is no 
money to get another db dev server).

Also, if there is a better solution to this "bullying" problem, I would like 
to know.

Many thanks in advance,
Billy
