Vsserv Resource Hog?
Hi
Just wondering, does vsserv normally take so much resource? Ram usage spike started about 1-2 days ago. The highest I've seen the ram usage go up to is 80%.
Highest I've seen vsserv hit is 500,000+
Bringing the whole system down down to a crawl.
Been using Bitdefender for awhile now so this change is quite sudden and strange.
Any reason to why this might be?

Hello,
When exactly you observe these spikes in the VSSERV memory usage ? Any particular time when this occurs ? (i.e. after returning the PC from hibernation, when you run a certain software, when you perform Windows updates etc)
Follow the steps explained in THIS article then send me a PM with the generated log file along with a detailed description of the issue you encounter and the link to this topic.
Looking forward to your answer!0 -

I'll tell you when it does it to me....just before an update system crawls, during an update system is unusable until the update is complete, it doesn't even need to hog resources completely it just slows it right down until it is finished and looking at the system resourses vsserv is about 200MB and using 95% CPU this has always been the case even back to 2008. The most annoying part is those updates are going on even when I have told BDTS2011 to only carry them out every two hours, I have had 2MB then a 3MB update today within 10 minutes of each other!0 -
