Cfcache template cf10 issue. When I use it thousands ( 15000) of threads remains in process coldfusion.exe until server crash.

Question

Hi,
Using cfcache to cache templates for a short period of time, the number of threads in coldfusion.exe process increase unexpectedly. Moreover, these threads remains in process (view resource monitor). We don't know why. Maybe an xml config file of CF10 take control of these threads?
When I use this code:
<cflock name="prodDetail#URL.ID#" type="exclusive" timeout="10000">
<cfcache timespan="#createTimeSpan(0,0,0,30)#" key="prodDetail#code#" id="prodDetail#code#" name="prodDetail#code#">
</cfcache>
</cflock>
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
This is Windows audit feature, I suppose that you have known that, actually, when you configure this audit policy, audit event is generated when sensitive privilege requests are made. This includes following objects:
• A privileged service is called.
• One of the following privileges are called:
◦Act as part of the operating system
◦Back up files and directories
◦Create a token object
◦Debug programs
◦Enable computer and user accounts to be trusted for delegation
◦Generate security audits
◦Impersonate a client after authentication
◦Load and unload device drivers
◦Manage auditing and security log
◦Modify firmware environment values
◦Replace a process-level token
◦Restore files and directories
◦Take ownership of files or other objects
So the culprit is not Windows system, this should be caused by a massive privileged operations. As we can see, the privileged operation is
 SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege. In my environment, if I run some opearations such as backup, there are
 records as expected, you suspected this is related to Acronis services, if these services require so many privileged operations, Windows would audit this via its mechanism.
