SP 52556: Disable the “Performance Logs and Alerts” service to improve system performance

Symptom: When you start the Services applet in “Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools”, the “Startup Type” setting for the “Performance Logs and Alerts” service may be set to “Automatic” or “Manual”.
Resolution: Modify the system registry settings to disable the “Performance Logs and Alerts” service in Windows.
Additional Information: The “Performance Logs and Alerts” service collects performance data from local or remote computers based on preconfigured schedule parameters, then writes the data to a log or triggers an alert. If this information is of no interest, disable the service to save memory and resource.
