    I installed the KB2950358 hotfix. So far svchost.exe is just slowly increasing like it has been since the KB2847346 hotfix. It didn't improve it any more, but it didn't make it worse either. It would be nice to have a full fix for the memory leak, but this is still good enough.

    I installed the KB2950358 hotfix as well, but did not help.  I have not messed with IE vers.  NSI fine for a few days then goes multi-GB.  2008R2 SP1 with Hyper-V.

    after spending lots of time scanning malware and rootkit scanner , disabling enabling services to see which one is eating memory. I just find out here to remove IE11 once I remove it my IE went back to IE8 on windows server 2008 R2 so seems like somehow IE11 got installed manually without IE9 and IE10 so maybe if I install it by order it will have no problem but I rather stay on IE8 since there is no problem now and memory runs smoothly I have 32GB memory on server it was eating 32GB memory can u believe that? so now its so stable try that let me know.

    Hi all, Jasthrus here. FINALLY got a stretch of 10 days UPTIME with KB2847346 applied to a fully updated WIN7 Home Premium. After 10 days, NSI is BELOW 10,000K, and has remained low the entire time. Not sure what KB2950358 addresses, will look into it. Looks like MS has finally realized there is an issue, and are correcting it.

    Good Luck All,

    Jasthrus

    I hadn't seen that hotfix yet. But so far with the last hotfix my svchost.exe is at 54,960 K after 20 days. This is a huge improvement. It didn't get rid of the leak, but it's now slow enough to live with. I may try that hotfix as well, Alison Wonderland. Though I wonder if there is any conflicting issues.
