I originally posted this on "Operating Systems" forum, but haven't got any reply for past 2 days, so I'm reposting it here..
I'm on WinXP Pro, and recently installed IIS. In order to run IIS, I started the indexing service through services.msc and set its property at "auto." so I don't have to start it mannually everytime I reboot the system. After a short while, I noticed a strange lag on my system. First I thought it's my portable USB hard drive that caused the lagginess, but after I detached the portable HD, I still had this random lag problem. I looked in the Task Manager and there was no application running but the CPU usage was at 100% (!). So I was like WTH??? I clcked on the next tap to see if there was any process eating system resource. While there was no huge memory usage but the indexing service (cisvc.exe) and a few other services (presumably related to the indexing service) was using 100% of CPU!! Holy ..!
I stopped the indexing service and now everything is back to normal and I see the CPU usage bar is down to under 5% when idle, but I need to use the indexing service somehow for my web server to run using IIS. I know it's not a server version of Windows but it's still very usefull for practicing purposes. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!
