Common trace flags include 610 for minimally logged operations, 4199 for query optimizer fixes, 1222 for deadlock information in XML format, and 835 to enable locking pages in memory for standard edition. Other trace flags control allocation of tempdb objects, logging of deadlocks, backup operations, checkpoints, and instant file initialization.
