windows 8 - Memory use increasing without any process


I am having some issues with my memory usage since a few days (maybe since the last Windows update I did if I remember correctly) where my memory slowly fill up to the 16 GB capacity over the course of the day.


It starts normally using around 1.5GB / 16GB and then increases by like 1GB per hour to get some abnormal stuff like 14GB used after a day, at which point I have to reboot to "clear" the memory.


I already tried a few things to try to find the issue but I can't seem to be able to find what causes this, here is more information:


Poolmoon which seems to show that the "Tag" responsible for the memory usage increase is Toke and Proc (MmSt and CM31 staying around 2GB all day):

Actually fixed the issue by simply uninstalling the Razer surround process (Sound driver) after seeing RzSurroundVADStreaming.dll in the WPT Graph.


Memory is stable after a 20 hours uptime around 2GB used.
