How do I figure out what's running in a svchost process
-
I have one going bonkers on me eating a core for the last 15 minutes and generating 12k page faults/second over that time period (seems to be getting worse now). I'd like to pull the plug on it properly instead of just killing the process....

SysInternals Process Explorer will do that for ya.

Interesting, I don't have this at work. I wonder if this will show up on the home machine? I'm curious if others have this as well?

Are you running Vista or Windows 7? If yes, it is extremely simple to figure out. In th task manager highlight the svchost.exe process, right click, and select "Got To Services". This will indicate all the services running on the svchost.exe process.

Just hover your mouse over any svcutil, it'll list all the processes within. You can't drill down to each of internal process though.

You can right click on svchost.exe and click properties. There is a services tab on the properties dialog box that appears.

I dunno. Mine came pre-installed with Windows 7 ultimate super duper special edition.

Hell, I think I *wrote* it! Can't remember though, my resume is so cluttered with...ah, hmmm... back to designing satellites! Marc

Seriously? So what the hell does it do? Is it's name actually suggestive of its function, or is that just some amusing coincidence?

From the screenshots that doesn't appear to do anything that process explorer doesn't ie identify *which* of the two dozen odd services inside was guzzling all my performance.

correct. this, or procexp, will answer the question you asked, when used in combination with taskman.

I did:
tasklist /svc /fi "imagename eq svchost.exe"
and it returned all of the services being ran by my svchost.exe. I was curious about this for some time since it seems task manager has alot of instances of this image running.
