The first sorry for my English. I am Spanish and I try to write so that you understand me.
I have the problem you described long ago about iconservicesagent, a process that triggers to consume RAM when I open an external hard drive.
I have been communicating with apple technicians but I have seen that all they did was experiment with my computer without knowing exactly what they were doing or why.
Finally, I told them that what I wanted was for them to look for the global error and make a patch, because it was evident (it was only necessary to search Google for "iconservicesagent" to see that many more people were the same), it's a big problem.
I do not know if you have continued investigating about that problem, but I would like to know if you have any progress because I can not work with that external hard drive and from Apple they do not find the solution.
Thank you very much for your time. Regards
