I'd be surprised if SE accepted anything to do with distributions
at all. It would accept:
UPDATE STATISTICS;
UPDATE STATISTICS FOR TABLE sometable;
UPDATE STATISTICS FOR PROCEDURE someproc;
I think that's all. That's all that's available for 5.x OnLine too.
Note that the SE version of UPDATE STATISTICS is pretty quick
in the absence of stored procedures -- it copies a number from the
index file to the systables catalog and that's all.
