If the queries return less than 350 rows (less than 0,01% of the big
table), it's probable that some index may be used, if it exists.
In this case, the performance impact should be insignificant.
If the query returns much more rows (or if an appropriate index does
not exist) SQL Server may perform a table scan. In this case, scanning
one big table (if you use a big table, and 250 views) would be slower
than scanning one (or a few) smaller tables by querying the partitioned
view, also specifying a condition on the partitioning column (if you
use 250 tables and a partitioned view).
