Data engine high memory usage

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

I have 2 UIM versions, one version is 8.5.1 and the other is 20.3.3 (with all current updates).

8.5.1 runs on windows 2012 and I have Microsoft SQL Server 2014 (SP3) for it.

The 20.3.3 runs on windows 2019 and I have Microsoft SQL Server 2019.

I saw that data engine runs on the 8.5.1 about 600 MB of memory BUT the data engine on 20.3.3 use 11.8 GB of memory ( I have 32 GB memory in the server) !!!

Is it OK? is it a memory leak?

Environment

Release : 20.3

Component : UIM - DATA_ENGINE

Cause

- data_engine loglevel was 4.

Resolution

Changing the loglevel to 0 brought down the memory usage to 500 MB.
