Thank you for the response.<br/>
I was able to upload a memdump just now.<br/>
DisplayFusionService in this case is sitting at ~800MB memory and 17000 Handles<br/>
Seems like <b>BFAudio:UpdateCachedDeviceList</b> is leaking / recreated all the time.<br/>
<br/>
This might be related to "Elgato WaveLink" Program for Audio-Channels. As The program (WaveLink) could run into a state where it would consume ~1 CPU core randomly for some time. Possibly then caused by DisplayFusion or vice versa.<br/>
Process is called <b>AudioRoutingHelper.exe</b><br/>
<br/>
Eglago WaveLink seems to have problems with an audio channel resulting in a loop of the following messages. That might explain why something breaks<br/>

<ul class="ListBullet">
<li>When the memory usage is over 500 MB, open the Windows Task Manager, click the processes tab, then right-click DisplayFusionService.exe and choose "Create Dump File"</li>
<li>ZIP the dump file to reduce the size</li>
<li>Send us the dump file via this page: https://www.binaryfortress.com/Data/Upload/</li></ul>
Thanks!

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="CTDiscussions">
Hey,<br/>
<br/>
im running into the problem that over time DisplayFusionService.exe uses about 1,3 GB of memory and has &gt;50.000 Handles open in Task-Manager.<br/>
(Win 10 Pro 10.0.19044; DisplayFusion Pro 10 Beta 17).<br/>
<br/>
I did not find out what makes it go that high yet but I can reproduce an increase of about ~300 each time I go into hibernate-mode and turn the pc back on. Memoryusage/Handles increases every time.<br/>
<br/>
Example of a freshly stared DisplayFusionService:<br/>
1. About ~500 Handles initially<br/>
2. After 3-4 hibernate + reboot we get the first screenshot<br/>
3. After another reboot we get the second screenshot<br/>
4. After restarting the DisplayFusionService we get the third screenshot.<br/>
<br/>
(I cannot upload the full DisplayFusionDebugInfo but these might be relevant)<br/>
Processes has ~4096 of these<br/>
<div class="Inline"><pre>&lt;div id="Section389" class="Title"&gt;&lt;a name="Section389" href="#Section389"&gt;Process Manager: Main Filenames [Cache_GetProcessMainFileName]: 300 seconds [6450]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li class="ItemL0"&gt;1200 [281,015s / 300 seconds]: -&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class="ItemL0"&gt;1200 [281,015s / 300 seconds]: -&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class="ItemL0"&gt;1200 [281,015s / 300 seconds]: -&lt;/li&gt;</pre></div><br/>
<br/>
Log contains a lot of these:<br/>
