I'm experiencing symptoms similar to these on my GPD Win. Here are my memory stats after a day of use with no applications running, showing that about 2 GiB of memory are gone:

The answer suggests that the video driver may be the culprit, therefore I would like to see how much memory is consumed by the drivers. Is there a tool or a technique which allows me to estimate the memory consumption of individual drivers, or at least estimate the total?

Edit: it looks like my issue is caused by Steam client leaking handles, similar to what's described here. The tag name is not the same, but my issue doesn't appear when Steam is not started.

    non paged pool is too high. use poolmon to see which tag is using too much memory and next the findstr command to see which driver belongs to the tag – magicandre1981 Jul 20 '17 at 14:48
  • @magicandre1981 Thanks. I've already seen your answer (and closed my question as a dupe). In my case, the offending tag is Inte, which is found in 30 or so sys files. Given that I also experience graphical glitches/crashes, I suspect this is related to Intel HD graphic drivers. Unfortunately, I've already tried upgrading to the latest drivers for Cherry Trail, and downgrading to the previous "beta" release with no improvements in memory management. – Dmitry Grigoryev Jul 24 '17 at 09:54
  • run the xperf command and analyze the ETL in WPA to see which driver use Inte tag. – magicandre1981 Jul 24 '17 at 15:07

    if you need help, zip the ETL and share the zip so that I can look at it. – magicandre1981 Jul 26 '17 at 16:40
