The list is pretty big. This sounds more like an interview question than anything. I use a lot of the following: - sys.dm_xe_objects - sys.dm_xe_object_columns - sys.dm_xe_sessions - sys.dm_os_wait_stats - sys.dm_os_performance_counters

I'd suggest getting a copy of "Performance Tuning with SQL Server Dynamic Management Views" by Louis Davidson and Tim Ford. That will give you a good functional foundation on DMVs.
