Not exactly sure why it was doing this. Why would it be taking this much memory?
I would suggest submitting a support ticket with these details on your install to help with troubleshooting. I expect they'll want to get logs as well:
Funny thing is was in a stuck citrix session - bounced the session and it went away.
That's good news. Let us know if you see this again because we'd definitely want to address if its really a Cirrus issue.
Chris I'm looking at the task manager again and this .exe is running under a users account. How does this service/process start and where can I change this to a service based account rather than a users account?
This same thing happens to us. I just stopped the process and logged back in and the memory and CPU have been released. We end up using 400-1000MB when it hangs up and even after the user interface is closed down the process stays and buries a CPU.
This is most likely to happen when two of us are in it and at least one stays in the GUI for a long time. Hard to reproduce and only happens once or twice a week, though we do not use Cirrus GUI every day... Maybe since the automated jobs run to collect configs at 5pm, if we are in the GUI at that time that is what triggers it... Hard to say, but you are not alone...
