Virtual memory explosion
process igfxsrvc.exe seems to own about 2gb of
virtual memory, according to process explorer. Memory leak? It's an intel graphics driver I think. Machine is latitude e5400 from 2011. Fix? -- On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |

Yes, that is the Intel graphics driver. But the reason it eats virtual memory is unclear... Ben Myers

It creates a driver folder that's installed on reboot. Now it runs at about 1mb instead of growing to 2gb. -- On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |

Ben Myers Thanks, I did that on speculation that they wouldn't tempt you with something that wouldn't work as expected, and it seems to have worked okay. The ig*.exe start small and stay small instead of growing to 2gb over a day now. -- On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |
