It's supposed to, to make your system run faster. If you start getting low on free memory, Windows will lower the amount of memory that the service host is using.

Why the fuck would you terminate the service host. I just told you that it does that for a reason, it's perfectly normal, and nothing to worry about. Of fucking course something bad is going to happen if you terminate important system files, they're there for a reason.


@XSV, it's XP, you can tell by the Window.

your svchost enables/makes other process's to run, you need to find the sub-process that is making svchost use so much memory.

Check out Process Explorer:
Code:

Its basically a advanced task manager, you should be able to find out more about whats going on with that program.

A self terminating svchost could be an issue of computer security.


I suggest scanning your computer with this, for malware/spyware:

Malware Bytes Free
Code:
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php


Then scanning with this for viruses:

Avast Free
Code:
http://download.cnet.com/Avast-Free-Antivirus/3000-2239_4-10019223.html


If your clean, check this solution out:

Good Luck.

just something im aware of, svchost is a common program that gets injected in viruses, so it could be a botnet injected in your svchost.

From a command prompt

tasklist /SVC will list all processes and show you what services are attached to it. tasklist /? for the help file.

Process Explorer is a really great program, but will propably overload you will info you do not want. If you use it just remember to filter anything but svchost
