WSUS W3WP IIS work process hogging memory!


setup:

windows server 2008 r2 64bit - updated
wsus 3.0 sp2 built in db (not sql)
sql 2008 (fully patched) - not used wsus (yet...)

this server master server replica server's connect (there 10, potentialy maybe 70-80 servers in future).

i noticed morning w3wp process using around shy of 1gb of ram... after doing digging, restarted wsus app pool in iis , bloated w3wp process shrank right down

does know cause process large?  cant seem find other similar posts regarding issue...

hi,

can use performance monitor to  capture of per-process memory utilization machine freezes.

review /actual/ memory usage @ moment @ freezes.

also, can review wsus softwaredistribution.log , iis logs determine if there wsus activity occurring during moment of last lockup.
