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.

    Hi, I was playing today and the game crashed saying that memory was full, so I checked and had same issue, search app was using all ram space.

    I updated windows recently and not noticed this problem before today.

    I have ryzen 7 3800x and Nvidia 3070

    I've had the EXACT thing happen, I was watching a video on youtube and suddenly it crashed saying 'Out of Memory', so I check the task manager and the Feeds process was taking up 31GB!

    I turned off the feeds in the options, so far it hasn't happened again.

    Turning off worked for me as well - seems like the only 'fix' that I have seen.
