I have spent months researching and messing around and have finally decided to ask for help. I have a Windows 2019 Server, that has high Paged and Non-Paged pool usage. Upon reboot and the first user login it runs GREAT, pool usages are under 1gb and everything is smooth. By day 2 pool usages are around 5GB each and the server has become so slow that its nearly unusable. I have read some posts here that have been very helpful however I have still been unable to find a sutable solution other then restarting the server twice daily, which is a major inconvenince to the users that use it.

This is the Task manager view.

This is the poolmon view. (Used PoolmonX app)

I have attempted many times to get a good xperf capture. However I must be doing something wrong as I am unable to capture more then what appears to be 60 seconds or so per 200GB of trace.. Ive also never been able to pinpoint the exact time or whats going on when the pools are growing. I am open to recommendations on how to solve these two issues.

Thank you for any help you may provide.

  • Maybe worth running `typeperf "\Memory\Pool Nonpaged Bytes" "\Memory\Pool Paged Bytes" -si 30 -o C:\pool.csv` after boot for a few hours, to get an idea of when the issue starts? Does it tie in with a particular event? Does the resultant graph look the same from each boot? Does this help you to know when it's best to get a etl trace as that is ultimately what will help. – HelpingHand Jul 24 '20 at 20:46
  • @HelpingHand I will try set up a scheduler to run some of these periodically in an attempt to gather more information. Thank you for the suggestion. – CTIDRV Jul 29 '20 at 14:59
