  1. Mapped memory file high memory usage.


    I keep having my memory eaten up by what RAMMapp says is a "Mapped Memory File". I can't seem to pin it to an app or driver and all google search turns up is info about windows server and/or a bunch of techno babble that's above my pay-grade. Can anyone point me at some info "for not quite dummies but close enough" that will help me sort this out? All my drivers are current, windows is updated, I've shut down everything that can BE shut down.



    Thanks!

    System and compressed memory high disk usage during file copy

    Thank you Amarjeet_Paul.

    I spent many more hours than I had hoped this past week reading and trying others' suggestions from this community on how to reduce high RAM usage due to ntoskrnl.exe. The "System and compressed memory" process remained the top consumer of RAM, using 500-900MB,
    among all other processes running. I deemed it to be the likely culprit in making my computer use frustratingly sluggish. After completing your
    third step, steps 1. & 2. provided no improvement in my case, the "System and compressed memory" process RAM usage has plummeted from the top of the Task Manager Process list to the bottom, running at a remarkable 0.1MB! That's a whole lot less than
    1% of the targeted process' gluttony. You're hired! Ps. I'll be keeping an eye on the process' use as I get back to normal operations, and be back if it floats to high in the list. Or if the registry fix you suggested has compromised use in any way. Please
    explain in simple terms what the insertion of your registry modification is doing.

    Thanks again.

    Geoff
