Is it normal that MSExchangePowerShellAppPool is using over 1,3GB of memory? I have to run Recycle on the app pool nearly every day.

Onyone who know how to avoid this?

Hi,

Is it 1.3GB or 13GB for MSExchangePowerShellAppPool?

Also, I want to double confirm:

1. Which Exchange version are you used?
2. Does the Exchange server meet the hardware requirement?
3. Do you run any command or script task with Exchange PowerShell while this issue arise?

Normally, it will cause high memory usage if run a large or complex command in EMS.
In my test lab, we have only 5 mailboxes with 3GB database, the EMS almost use 120MB. Thus, it's fine if it uses 1.3GB within a large environment.

Moreover, we can configure the pool recycle condition (IIS, Application Pools, select MSExchangePowerShellAppPool and click Recycling) if you want to limit its memory usage.
