Just to be nitpicky, Process Explorer was developed by Sysinternals and was later bought by Microsoft (not unlike other Microsoft products like DOS, IE and SQL Server, which weren't started from scratch). I think they actually bought the entire company.
P.S. This isn't MS bashing. Other companies (like Apple) do it too and it's not illegitimate.

Check the processes that are running. I'm sure Labview is using only a portion of that.
I can't complain about LV using up more resources than past versions. After all, it does have more features. And that should not affect the reliability for long term running of the VI.
Have you thought of uninterruptable power supply (UPS) - power backup - and of something that warns you if your code stops running, for unknown reason? It is possible to create code that monitors for heartbeats from your application. That way, if it does stop, theis independently running application can give you a warning and it minimizes downtime.
