@Sathya You don't have to download them, just set the _NT_SYMBOL_PATH, it only downloads the needed symbols to the path you specified if I'm not wrong.

@TomWij to the URL ?

_NT_SYMBOL_PATH=SRV*E:\Symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
I do have downloaded all symbols and compressed them though, but it's not really needed.
It does speed up things the first time though...

@TomWij oo I see

WinDBG/XPerfView might look like hanging while downloading the symbols one-by-one. :D
And basically, at the spike moment you will want to zoom a bit in on the spike and check the activity of other processes around that moment.
You can also select the spike and then get a stack summary.
