How to detect who is creating memory consumption in .NET app?

My Windows service is eating a lot of private data (yellow in VMMap)

I have a Visual Studio with Debugger. How can I find out who is consuming so much memory?

I think it must be unmananged C++ new operators.

Is it possible to detect without installing commercial third party memory profilers?

You can use WinDbg (download) with the SOS.dll extension to look at memory dumps of your application.
