I just fired off a couple of separate emails to support and I'll drop them here to see if anyone has any ideas - I've gone through everything and tried to tweak and now I'm on fresh hardware - plenty of CPU, memory, disk, and disk throughput - no extras.
No auto updates, no file history, no extra processes running. This is a workstation dedicated to BI. I went apesh*t and just provisioned it for future growth and it's great but I have this lingering issue that has now followed me from the old hardware environment where I just exported the registry and built a very clean slimmed-down (featurewise) Windows 10 Pro build with the Intel Skull Canyon NUC6i7KYK - i7-6700 something, 32GB, 512GBSamsung 960 Pro, and a 1TB 960 Pro.
I've got 14-16 cameras - mostly HiK - running mostly 1920x1080 - some at 2whatever by whatever (4mp), 6 fps, direct-to-disc, hardware decoding inbound only (not on playback), 5 fps for web access, lots of other tweaks trying to follow best practices and everyone's experience so I'm missing something.
Windows updates are off, BI updates are off. BI runs a service as SYSTEM (on old hardware BI ran as a service as a local admin). When I manually kick off an update it hangs at the point that it should be killing BlueIrisService.exe. I wrote a simple script that I kick off (and I've gotten good at it) right at the moment it needs to finish the update that simply does "taskkill.exe /f /im BlueIrisService.exe /f" so for whatever reason the update won't kill that service. In fact its a bitch to kill it at any time.
Let's say I reboot and log in. BlueIrisService.exe has already kicked off and that process is running as SYSTEM. I have the console in the startup folder so that runs in the local user context and that is a local admin user.
Memory will start off around 2-3GB and CPU is under 20. Memory will just climb slowing and CPU and within 24 hours or so we're pegged at 80-90-100% and memory will climb up to 7GB or more but never more than 8.
My workaround is just a scheduled task to reboot every 24 hours that that thing boots fast and the service fires off but I don't autologin. What is most important is capturing and saving the video - console is just gravy but we do prefer to have the console running as it is on a shelf in the living room. I have the monitor on a zwave outlet with a rule that if no motion in that room for more than 90 minutes it powers off - that has nothing to do with this but I am aware of burning the monitor so I wanted to have a solution.
When my wife walks in the room she wants that thing on so the motion sees her and turns the power to the monitor on before she gets there - pretty cool..
What am I missing or where should I look? I'm going to start digging in because I remember there are threads about CPU and memory but if you have any ideas throw 'em out..
I also script backing up the registry hive for BI daily so if I needed to rebuild this thing I could do it fast.

. I will check it out. Did you just script killing it the process? I made a quick and dirty script but didn't automate anything. Just one line. You did it right. Thanks a lot.
