Memory Leak????? 512 ram.... only 88 freee!!!!?!?! ahhhh

[bjc112]

Hey all, Not sure if its bad memory,related to timings, or if it is just Xp... i have 35 processes..i boot up with about 380 free... i run seti,NAV, a firewall.. and thats it... Kazaa too..

Now it works great but after about 1 week even 3 days sometimes... my memory slowwwwwwwwwlyy drops... under task manager, i have 35 processes... if u add them up.. it doesnt add to 300...:| not even close... i should never hit below 250... for some reason it seems seti pulls alot of resources or won't let the CPU give them back...

Aynone Run into this prob...

THis is DEFINATLEY A MEMORY LEAK!!!!!!

TIA

Bryan

a few services are..

sapisvr.exe... 36 megs..? and pulling CPU cycles.. about 30-90 now..

my explorer is 25 megs

seti is 16 megs

anyone know about "fast Exe?"

up before i head out for a lil..

Kazaa as a whole is a very poorly written program...I would take that out of my startup if I were you. Never heard of fast.exe before..

 

[MrMaster]

It is definitely Kazaa as the problem. Morpheus is the same way.

isnt fast.EXE a caching program??

I think it is an indexing program from Windoze. For file find and such.
Could be wrong.

well kazaa doesnt boot wiht the startup, just it runs occasionally.. but when i dont run seti.. everything seems to stay high?!?!

 

[Kitros]

hmmmm...

well, given that you're not going to give up seti, which seems to be the problem...

just run powerstrip and set the recovery @ 100

 

[jaxmc1023]

kazaa is flooded with spyware.. which might be the cause but i doubt it

could someone elaborate on the formentioned problems with morpheus? I am interested...

i think set iis the prob,havent ran it all day... and seems just fine... might judt have to give it up...

That's about 62MB of RAM that it's taking up. Sounds fairly normal to me - seems that as you add more RAM, Windows notices and loads more of its stuff into memory.

NOOO!!! dont quit seti!! please?
How do you have seti set up to run? Are you using setDriver?
