Computer resource leak detection

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a computer storage media storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by the processor, causes the processor to perform a method, the method comprising:
• detecting a process launch;
• determining a plurality of reference indicators that are generated and terminated for the process while the process is running, each of the plurality of reference indicators referencing a respective computing resource;
• generating, for display on a user interface, first values indicating the plurality of reference indicators that are generated and terminated;
• determining that a set of reference indicators that are generated but are not terminated exceed a performance issue threshold associated with a resource leak;
• and
• based at least in part on the determining that the set of reference indicators exceed the performance issue threshold, generating, for display on the user interface, a second value indicating a performance issue associated with the performance issue threshold.

A computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, by a processor, causes the processor to perform a method, the method comprising:

• determining that a handle is generated for a computing resource, the handle includes an identifier that references the computing resource;
• determining that a process is requested to be shut down;
• receiving an indication that an operating system kernel will remove the handle from memory;
• based at least in part on the indication and the determining that the process is requested to be shut down, predict that there is a resource leak, the resource leak is at least partially indicative of the process likely not having requested the handle to be removed from the memory;
• and
• based at least in part on the prediction of the resource leak, generating a notification that indicates the resource leak.
