We are running a VM with Windows server 2008 R2, we see the physical memory utilization to be close to 100% always. Machine is running crystal reports server.
Task manager counts to 99% memory Utilization, where a sum memory used by all the processes from tasklist accounts for only 1/4 of the total available memory. Not sure if their is a memory leak, if so how to find and patch it ?
I agree going by summing up the tasklist values is not the correct approach as it may not account for cached and so on, but I am guessing it can be the first place to start with.
