Name begins with sp_

If your stored procedures names begin with the sp_ prefix and is not in the master database, you will see SP:CacheMiss before the cache hit for each execution even if the stored procedure call is owner qualified. The reason for this is that the sp_ prefix tells SQL Server that the stored procedure is a system stored procedure. System stored procedures have different name resolution rules. With system stored procedures, SQL Server will look first in the master database if the call is not database qualified. Then will look in the current database. To avoid this additional work, do not use stored procedure names that begin with sp_
