SBS 2008 Sqlservr.exe High Memory Usage

Open an Administrative Command Prompt.

Type:
osql -E -S \.pipeMSSQL$MICROSOFT##SSEEsqlquery

Now at the SQL prompt, type:

1> sp_configure ‘show advanced options’,1
2> reconfigure with override
3> go

The screen displays:

Configuration option ‘show advanced options’ changed from 0 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.

Type:

2> go

(NB The RAM usage of 512Mb is a suggestion, use whatever is appropriate in your environment.)

The screen displays:

Configuration option ‘max server memory (MB)’ changed from 2147483647 to 512. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.

Type:

1> exit

Restart the service, or reboot the server. The database instance may be opened in the management applet using the above notation.

  1. If sqlservr.exe is using huge amount of memory there is a reason behind. Forcing it to use less memory doesn't solve the problem.
    You should check files in C:WSUSSUSDBUpdateServicesDbFiles as they are probably huge.
