i got a massive memory leak that i think has a big trouble in my program.

i got 16GB of RAM in my machine. 

server was running in server 2008 r2

simulator(tcp client) was run in 8 machinces. A totally of thousands TCP connection.

but when running in a few hours, the non-paged pool memory in my server process up to 16GB,cause a system crash.

at that time, the handles number remain at a level

and i also find when i close a simulator, the non-paged pool can drop hundreds MB or more.

please help me to analyze such situation.

thanks

Use poolmon to see which driver causes the memory leak:

If you found the TAG which leaks the memory, use findstr to see which driver uses the tAG:

findstr /s <TAG> *.sys
