SYMPTOMS

Calling a stored procedure twice in succession which does an insert into a view may, under extremely rare conditions, cause either an access violation or CPU spin. A number of dependencies are involved, including rtrim(), specific data, and number and length of parameters for each stored procedure invocation.

Create stored procedure with recompile.
