My windows 7 installation started having a memory leak where after a few days memory usage slowly creeps up to 90% (of 16 gb).
In my task manager, the list of processes don't add up to that much memory, so I downloaded rammap and saw a bunch of bash.exe and sed.exe processes.
Each of these use up 4K. I uninstalled cygwin, but this is still happening:
Edit: Some more information: They do not come back immediately after a restart. However, after some more time memory usage starts going up again and I check RAMMAP and the weird processes are there again.
I don't have cygwin installed anymore, so it's curious where these are even coming from
