I have a client/admin complaining about excessive memory usage by the client scheduler, since upgrading the client from 6.1.2.0 to 6.2.2.0.
Before, dsmcsvc.exe was using around 21mb. Now it is using from 178mb (today) to spiking over 1gb. They did some digging and found various articles/docs that talks about using the CAD/managedservices to help reduce the memory footprint. One thing that disturbs me is the statement "Tip: Restart the traditional scheduler periodically to free system resources previously used by system calls.". You can read this here: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6r2/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.itsm.client.doc/t_cfg_schdcad.html This sounds like a cop-out to address memory leaks. How many of you "restart the scheduler service periodically to free system resources"?
