Hi,
I'm running Windows XP Professional SP2, up-to-date with Windows Updates.
I've recently noticed that my non-paged kernel memory is leaking at a steady
pace of 10Mb+/day. If I don't reboot my machine every few days, it eventually
and inevitably grinds to a halt, forcing me to reboot it.
By searching on the web, I realized I needed to run poolmon.exe to debug the
leak, which I did. The output of poolmon clearly shows that the leaking tag
is 'Proc'. But what is 'Proc'? I have no idea.
Can someone please explain to me what the 'Proc' tag means, and how I can
use that information to track down the cause of the leak?
Thanks!
Sam
