I’m running a server with Win 2003 Standard and when I’m remoting in I see that the I/O Other Delta is exceptionally high. If I don’t move the mouse or touch anything it’s around 4GB but If I start to move the mouse around it goes up to over 100GB. What precisely gets included in Other I/O and is it normal to have I/O this high? What is causing this and how can I resolve it?
We notice that when the server is stressed in this regard it negatively affects system performance and is causing network issues for other applications. We have at least 3GB of RAM left of the 11GB installed and the CPU is consistently below 20-30% usage.
