Memory Leak in the non-paged pool on Windows 2012R2 VM

P

PM-12

Hello

I've got a 2012R2 virtual machine that gradually keeps running out of memory. Upon checking the mem usage I can see that the processes consuming the memory don't add up to the amount that Windows reports as being in use.



However, the non-paged pool usage is 7.9GB and climbing so there's must be a leak in the non-paged pool.



I've used poolmon to try and establish the driver that's causing the leak but when I filter by Bytes, the largest driver is only using around 40MB. From looking this up I kind of expected poolmon to display a driver using around 7GB or more. Am I missing something here? Can anyone assist?


Cheers
