My Vista RTM system is sustaining disk "highest active time" near 100% and
the Image "System" (PID 4) is sustaining about 300MB/min writing to
C:\System Volume
Information\{<32-digit-hex-number}{<another-32-digit-hex-number>} for a very
long time (many minutes). It's gone as high as 440MB/min. The IO priority
for this is "Normal". The disk is thrashing constantly. It's making my
system unusably slow.
None of my open programs are actively doing anything, my memory usage is
only about 680MB out of 1GB total, and there's very little swap file
activity or any other disk activity besides this write to system volume
information.
Why is it doing this? What is it writing to that file?
