The vmmem process is a virtual process that the system synthesizes to represent the memory and CPU resources consumed by your virtual machines. In other words, if you see vmmem consuming a lot of memory and CPU resources, then that means your virtual machines are consuming a lot of memory and CPU resources. Bonus chatter : Strictly speaking, what it actually represents is the resources of the other virtual machines, since Windows itself is running in a virtual machine under the hypervisor.

You may not be explicitly using the hypervisor, but some other features are built on top of the hypervisor. Comments are closed. Citrix is not responsible for and does not endorse or accept any responsibility for the contents or your use of these third party Web sites.
