How many processes do you have running?

Just out of curiosity, how many processes do you have running on your system? I just looked and have 31 ... wanted to hear what others have....

That is at startup, with no windows/apps open off of a fresh boot. I am actually at 15 right now because i had to enable ICS and one other service for VPN connection.

I turn off any driver helpers or anything that loads in the system tray on startup. I also turn off a load of services i know i don't need.

You only need 6 processes. That also excludes audio ...

40.
Antivirus, Firewall, Spybot (both resident's on), WinAmp, FireFox, File Explorer, & OE are all running, too, so I'm sure that doesn't help things any...

But, then again, I've got 2Gigs of PC3200DDR on an AMD 64 3500+ (2.2GHz) ... C+A+D shows a 490Meg commit & *13%* CPU use.
I'm not exactly worried. =)P

Windows XP:

Fresh boot = 16 processes, turning off hardware specific utiliy
like hardware monitoring and ATI driver services which is not
essential would be only 12 processes left with less than 80000K
commit charge on Task Manager. I can get it lower than 70000K
by turning off some more services but I can't accept it as it
will disable many functionality that I need.

Current settings is fully functional most of the time I use
it, some administrative program need Server service though,
which is turned off by me as it is make my computer vulnerable
to security attack from internet.








Without taskmgr.exe you know how many it would be...
