Memory Leaks

[Guest]

Hi All!

Please suggest any method of detecting and getting rid of memory leaks
(except for a reboot please). At the moment I check the total memory consumed
by all process in the task manager and comapare it to total memory used in
the performance.

Please advice

Thanks

You could try running the application under the AppVerfier test utility
which is part of the Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT).

Hi !

Please suggest, say if I suspect that there is a memory leak on the server
which is not running any major application say my Domain controller, then how
should I proceed getting out of the issue.

Thanks

You can try using MEMSNAP.EXE to take point in time snapshots of memory
usage for the entire system.
The utility also has a function to compare the results of two logs.
