Bdis And Vvserve.exe Memory Usage In Win 7 64 Bit

trinaz

This is apparently not an unusual problem but so far I haven't been able to find a "public" answer in the forums ? Attached are 2 memory snapshots....one for Task Manager and the other for Resource Manager.

Both seem to show ALOT of memory usage/reserve/hogging although I no longer have the infuriating slow downs I experienced with 2010 as in this open thread: http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?sho...&hl=vvserve

This commit usage is normal when running the PC

Is there any way to reduce the commit/reserved memory usage of Vvserv.exe in Win 7 64 bit & BDIS 2011 ?

Thanks....Tim

Hi Tim,

Considering the fact that VSSERV is pretty much responsible for all communications made between all BitDefender modules, I find that the commit size you show in the screenshot normal. A normal instance of Firefox is using normally about 100-120KB as you can also see from my screenshot.

Furthermore I can point you to the following article to understand the priority of the columns in Task Manager:

What you should look after is the CPU usage and the Threads counted for VSSERV, not the Commit size. That column should not even be displayed in Task Manager.

As a conclusion you have nothing to worry about, VSSERV , as far as I can see from the attached screens, is working normally.
