    Default Svchost.exe super high memory usage

    I have had some issues with memory usage going nuts over the last month or so. I have 8GB physical memory, Win 7 64 - I have always been OK with a very small page file. When I first started noticed memory issues I increased to Page file, but this does not help.

    As you can see below, the memory of 1x Svchost process is sucking up all my memory. That processes seems to be consisting of 7x services. I Googled each of them but all seem to be pretty standard stuff.

    Any idea's? I am at a loss on how to narrow this down further, especially since there does not seem to be a trigger, and the event log stays fairly clean as well.
