    This is unusual question, Marios. Why would you want to know how much memory is consumed by the SSIS service? Do you have an issue in particular?

    I don't think you can control SSIS service maximum memory.

    The reason is that I have a server (32-bit OS) with 8 GB of RAM, hosting 2 db-engine instances and the SSIS service.

    I have enabled AWE for one of the instances, setting max memory to 4 GB.

    The other db-engine instance can access the default maxmemory of 3 GB (3-gb switch is enabled).

    The SSIS service process can access up to the default of 2 GB (not sure if the 3-gb switch affects it as well).

    I would like to limit the SSIS service to a max memory of 1 GB, if possible, to avoid memory contention among the 3 processes. But, first I want to monitor memory usage by the SSIS service, to ensure I don't starve it of needed resources.

    SSAS gives one the ability to configure min/max memory, why isn't SSIS?
