The index clustering_factor is close to the number of table blocks. The total of all table blocks is 60532.
Why am i getting excessive consistent gets when my clustering factor is close to the number of blocks and all indexes are used?

Any suggestion or recommendations? Is there something wrong with what I am doing? Thanks

Are these indexes from different tables ? Whats the query and its execution plan ?

Clustering factor tells you how well the table data is ordered with respect to its index values, but is not the sole contributing factor to the number of consistent gets.
