Re: LSASS Memory Issue

There box is way under used, it never used to be like this only since the
last reboot due to the july windows updates, thats the only thing i can link
it to. Both boxes are different specs etc so not hardware specific.

Already read that one!

Box has 2gb of ram,

<100 Users in AD only used for authent, this is a hosting environment, so
users dont physically logon to client boxes. AD size is less than <20mb if
i
read the info correctly, adsizer predicts 23mb mem usage at the most

Hi,

Bit of an odd one this, we have two windows 2003 standard edition sp2
boxes,
both had been up for around 30 days, then they were rebooted for the
last
lot
of windows updates.

When they came back online i started to notice the lsass process using
large
amounts of memory, currently after 10 days sitting at over 400mb.

One box is the primary domain controller the other is a secondary, both
run
IIS and various other applications.

I haven’t found as yet a way to reduce the amount of memory in use.

Has anyone else seen this recently I did a google and a couple of
people
reported the same issue in July but didn’t find a solution.
