svchost.exe over 200,000k memory usage

hey wilders, when i look in task manager (i have windows vista home premium 64bit) one of the svchost.exe has over 200,000k memory usage. when i right click on it and go to services it shows windows audio endpoint builder(which is a legit service). can anyone else with the Same operating system check and see if it is like this. or this is normal? oh yea and make sur to press show process from all users

 

Hi there. There is a memory leak issue with svchost.exe sometimes. Make sure that the solution I link to is describing what you are experiencing, otherwise I'd suggest something else

i think i figured it out, it was superfetch that was being a memory hog.

 

does anyone here with vista 64bit have this problem if you enable superfetch?(i.e. over 100,000k memory usage in one of the svchost.exe)

 

Why is this a problem? Memory exists to be used. If there's lots of it free, then that's kind of like wasted potential.

Of course, if some process is hogging memory and not releasing it when it's needed more by more important processes, or if the memory use is causing slow down or other issues, that's a problem. But some process using lots of memory by itself is not a problem. SuperFetch will use a lot of memory. But if some process the user is running needs more memory, it will get it - SuperFetch will release it in such cases. It's a pretty handy technology, and it does actually speed things up.

Don't go worrying about memory usage unless the system is visibly slowing down or unstable.
