Feeds / Search application using all of the ram

I noticed that the PC started running slow today and opened task manager to see that System, Feeds (Search application) is using CPU and Disk quite heavily and as much ram that it can to pin it to 100%.

Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?

Update: Windows crashed and i restarted, same application started to ramp up again so i ended it.

Looking into events now.

    Same here, my specs are for example.
    RTX 3080 Ti
    Amd Ryzen 9 5950x

    32 GB RAM,
    My whole computer was lagging without any reasonable reason and when I opened task manager, I saw feeds taking 26-28 Gigabytes of my RAM, causing my computer to lag.
    What I saw is the most of people with only top-end computers get here. How come?

    This has been happening since a few days to me as well, with apps as Discord just freezing so hard I have to restart them completely. My monitor just becomes black too. I noticed that this started happening after I installed the latest Nvidia driver. I deactivated it from the taskbar from now and hope it wont happen again.

    Just had this happen. I was just watching some YouTube when I started hearing my CPU fan going loud for no reason. Looked up up Task Manager and first thing that popped was 80% of my 32GB RAM was in-use, most of it by "Feeds". CPU usage was high too, it was doing something.

    Windows 10 21H2

    MSI B550 Gaming Edge WiFi

    Ryzen 5600X

    AMD 6600XT

    32 GB of Corsair RAM (four sticks)

    NVME M.2 1TB SSD

    RM750x PSU

    I am curious, if anyone has seen this one on Win11, can you please let us (on this thread know)?
