Same problem here too and it's driving me crazy. FWIW, I'm using a cloud backup service (Crashplan) that requires an always-on applet and runs as a windows service. Is this a common variable with anyone else or a red herring?
nsi memory leaks fixed yet?
Does anyone know if there is a fix for nsi service eating up memory yet?I'm really getting tired of having it eat up to 3 gbs or ram all the time.I have a dump file if the need arises.

2013-12-25T19:33:53+00:00 Anyone have more ideas? Apparently the disabling and re-enabling the network adapter gets less effective after the first time. Went from 60,000K to 240,536K in less than 12 hours. I'm considering doing a full re-install of Windows 7 even. Though doing a repair certainly didn't help any.

2013-12-21T19:23:10+00:00 I am trying the IE 10 removal and manual install of IE 11. I'm not sure how to tell if all the previous updates are uninstalled without cross-referencing all the KB numbers. I will report back to this thread with results.
Also to note, before uninstalling IE 10, I often went 5 - 7 days without NSI memory consumption spinning out of control. Sometimes it happens within 24 hours. Sometime longer. It is very difficult to nail down what the cause is.

2013-12-18T04:51:45+00:00 My computer has been on for 30 minutes and it has already gone from 8,500K to 11,100K. I don't think it worked for me. Should I have uninstalled the platform update and KB2786081 and let IE11 install them again? I can't think of any other updates I might have installed for IE.
Edit:
I decided to get the rest of the updates for the week that I hadn't installed yet since I doubted it was going to make the issue worse. So far after an hour it is staying at 8,800K. I'll see how it goes over the next few days.
Edit 2:
After 26 hours uptime my svchost.exe is at 14,260K.
Edit 3:
17.756K after 48 hours.
