8.5.1. SP2 OrionCustomPollingService.exe RAM usage

I upgraded from SP1 to SP2 this morning and post successfull implementation and baseline polling I noticed something strange. The OrionCustomPollingService.exe is showing symptoms of a memory leak. I have attached my memory usage of this application for today. Previously it was around a 8% of my 2gb's of memory now it's around 40% and increasing as time goes by.

Anyone else experienced this yet? I have zero new pollers since the upgrade.

I received a new custompoller executable from development to replace the old one and it resolved this issue as an fyi. This was late yesterday afternoon.

Yes, Just checked and ours was over 800MB, Reststarted it (54MB), and added it to application monitoring.

Don't bother calling support about it. I clearly differentiated the symptoms of a memory leak and have debug available for the process was informed it's probably my physical memory and then I was told that I need to pull back my polling which has been the same for a year. I have also had the same polling interval since Orion was released with about 3 times the elements being polled.

Support has seriously gone way down this past year. I am reluctant to even call anymore.

Engineering is looking into the issue. It's not being dismissed.

Thanks for the reply

FYI we're up 60 MB in less that an hour, at this rate I'll have to schedule a restart every 8-12 hours.
