SQL Server 2008 R2 - Memory Usage High

Hi,

I would like to know how I can look into the memory usage of SQLSERVR.EXE.

It is consuming high memory of the server. I have checked the activity monitor, checked what the max set server mem was on sql (which is 2GB).

Is there another way to find out if its an individual process hogging up the memory? Checking a PID or something.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,

I think that

exec sp_who2;

will show you exactly what you're looking for. It will display the SPIDs, users, host, db, cpu time, disk IO (and more).

Kill <SPID#>;

will end any non-system process that needs killing.

How will i determine what process is using the most cpu? is it the cpu time?

There is an awful amount of process in sleeping status and awaiting command.

Please advise.

Thanks again!

Resource Monitor seems to be using 15272, is this normal? Log Writer 76097, CHECKPOINT 326775 with DiskIO 426318

Any idea?
