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.

    Did any of you also experience all of your disc space on drive C: getting used up? It did so on one of my computers while also the ram was used up 31 GB out of 32 was in use. After killing the feeds proces in task manager and turning news and interest off plus restarting the computer, the ram use was back to normal and the disc space on drive C: came back. So somehow it also used up the disc space. I havent seen anyone else mention that about the disc space, just the high ram use.

    It could be that Windows started to use the virtual memory, when the RAM got used up.

    Same thing happens to me, it takes more than 25gb of RAM.
    Amd ryzen 7 5800x, 32gb Corsair RAM and an Asus MOBO.

    Shame on me that I've trusted Microsoft to download that last Windows update 😥

    Never again...

    Please fix this issue ASAP.
