I have also seen this dumprep.exe at times & system becomes very slow & the only thing helps me is restart my system.
Even the cltr+alt+del too doesnt help.
Its an unknown process for me too.
If someone could please show me some details regarding this & let me know how to stop it then it will be a great help.
