I've written a console based service that runs on windows 2003 servers.
When the service is minimized or if a user logs into and then out of

Are you on RTM, SP1 or SP2? Working set trimming during remote
logons is a known problem that should be fixed in WS03 SP2:

I think SP2 also has some changes to throttle modified page writer
disk IO when there is enough available physical memory. If most of the
modified pages in your working set are pagefile-backed, this can
significantly reduce performance impact of trimming on minimize.
