When VM run, Wacom_Tablet.exe consume much more memory

Description

I notice Wacom_Tablet.exe have strange memory consumption for a while. Now I'm sure Wacom_Tablet.exe memory increase continuously when VM run.

Wacom_Tablet.exe is system service named "TouchServiceWacom" (Wacom Professional Touch Service)
Since Wacom_Tablet.exe behave normally while VM turn OFF, I can not assume this case wacom can help.

Wacom Driver Version: 6.2.0w5
HOST is Windows 7 64bit
GUEST is Windows XP

According my post at forums, I described this behavior when I work with version 4.3.26.

After I upgrade to version 5.0.0 still got similar behavior.

This is still happening with VirtualBox version 5.0.20 r106931 and the latest Wacom consumer drivers (5.3.5-3), released 20 January 2014. Posts on the Wacom forum have gone unaswered by Wacom ( http://forum.wacom.eu/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=20807 ). With the consumer drivers, it's pen_tablet.exe which has continuous memory usage once a VirtualBox VM is started.

So your Wacom tablet driver runs on the host, correct?

Tablet driver run on HOST.
Memory consumed increasing on HOST. just make sure.

I've installed 5.3.5-3 on a Windows 7 64 bit, without actually ever plugging in a tablet (I don't own one), I can't reproduce the issue. I start the VM, nothing happens. Tk #16753 is a duplicate of this bug.
