Currently we are seeing a memory leak occuring in svchost process via
Task Manager in Windows 2003 sp1. Upon investigation, we found out that
svchost's services are as below:

- Application Experience Lookup Service
- Background Intelligent Transfer Service
- Cryptographic Services
- COM+ Event System
- Server
- Workstation
- Network Connections
- Network Location Awareness (NLA)
- Task Scheduler
- System Event Notification
- Windows Management Instrumentation


The svchost consume up to 200+ MB in 10 days after reboot.

Anybody have any idea how to overcome this issue.
Thanks

I would launch procexp.exe (www.sysinternals.com) to monitor which svhost
process has a memory leak. You will need to select a suitable column via the
View pull-down menu.
