Subject: [H] SVCHost survey

I'm getting a lot of machines in where SVCHost has gone insane and is 
sucking up a lot of RAM and CPU time.  There are some suggested fixes 
for it (mostly reinstalling/registering Microsoft Updates) but I'm 
interested in finding out what the "normal" CPU time and Peak Mem 
Usage are for svchost.exe.  If people would take the time to reply 
with the information listed below for as many machines as they can, 
that would be great.

To get the information, bring up Task Manager, click on View and 
Choose Select Columns.  Check off CPU time and Peak Mem Usage.  Then 
sort by CPU time.  I'd like to get the information for System Idle 
Process (CPU Time) and the svchost with the highest CPU time (both 
CPU time, Mem Usage and Peak Mem Usage.)  On my laptop, which doesn't 
appear to be affected, it looks like this:

System Idle Process - CPU time: 34:01:05
svchost.exe - CPU Time: 00:05:36, Mem Usage (6320K) Peak Mem Usage (7584K)

I'll will share all findings with the list.
