15195	Memory Leak in VirtualBox.exe	jgmgmgm		"After running for a long time the VirtualBox instance for a running VM consumes more and more memory. It starts at only a hundred MB or so and ends up at several GB (private working set). I thought at first this might be the memory the VM is using however after a restart the VM uses a lot of memory immediately (resident) but none of the processes show a usage corresponding with this.

Specifics:

Host: Windows 7 64bit
Guest: Debian 7 64bit
Other: Shared folder with symlinks enabled. Low process priority set for virtualbox on host. USB2 extension used. No graphics/X11 on guest.

Are there any diagnostic facilities I can use to give a hint at where all of this memory is being used?"	defect	closed	GUI	VirtualBox 5.0.14	worksforme	memory leak vboxmanager virtualbox.exr		Linux	Windows
