Hi Ryan,

As SLProtocol is responsible for managing all the elements in your system and requires multiple threads, mutexes, and other system resources, it is not necessarily a reason for concern seeing those values.

To answer your specific questions:

A. Yes, if needed, it is possible to investigate what type of handles the process is currently using.

B. It is not possible to force a release of handles for a process, as these represent resources needed by the process, such as threads and mutexes, which do not necessarily mean they are stale or stuck.

As mentioned in my other answer, the high count could be normal if you have a large number of elements or they use multiple timers/threads.
