Feeds / Search application using all of the ram

Anonymous

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.

    Sigh, I'm gonna pirate windows superlite or something, because I have the same problem here on Windows 10 Professional. Is this some tactic to force everyone over to Windows 10?

    Lovely. - Getting the exact same thing here.

    Why is this "Search Application" thing now ruining my processing power the point where it repetitively crashes my PC?

    Can a Multi-Billion £££ company not set up an OS without something this egregious occurring?

    Is something actually being done or are they hoping that it'll magically go away without them actually putting effort in to fix it?

    Welcome to the club.

    One thing I don't understand is why the application can be that greedy.

    Mine, took almost 22GB out of 32GB total RAM.

    Silly question but, if I have 128GB ram would [SearchApp.exe] steal the rest of my 110GB? :)

    To answer your question, yes:
