As of late I have been having a most annoying problem with regards to the
general usage of Vista:
I appear to be running out of window handles... I have a Core 2 Duo E6600 @
1.4Ghz with 2 gig of RAM and an additional 2GB of paging file space running
Vista Home Premium 32 bit, yet after a while programs start failing to
create windows, buttons, menus - the works.
Task Manager shows that IE (with google toolbar) has over 4,000 handles in
use, 35,000 for local session manager, 12,000 for service host, around 2,000
for MSN messenger and 1,500 for windows media player. In total the system
shows around 76,000 handles shared among 1070 threads / 82 processes. I also
have 2 remote desktop applications running.
Does anybody else have any experience with this? Ther kernel should be able
to produce far more windows than this before it starts complaining.
Any insights?
