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.

    Was working in Maya and had this happen to me hardcore, first it minimized my screen to 800 resolution on a 32 inch wide curved monitor. Crashed Maya before I could save, and had feeds take up 95% of my 64 gb corsair DDR4 Ram. I have a 3080 ti graphics card with a 11900k intel cpu if anyone was wondering if it was hardware issue, which seems unlikely.

    Same thing here, was up to 90% utilization. I just ended the process and turned off the news feed, hopefully it stays gone.

    I've run into the same issue. It was using over 20GB of my ram and 40% of my CPU. Ending the process fixed me.

    I just had this happen today. Was working in OBS when all of a sudden my entire system was lagging. At first I thought it was some weird OBS issue until I checked, but to my surprise it was actually Feeds using a staggering 90 gigs of ram (I have 128 gigs). I killed that process and all went back to normal. I have a 5950x, and a 2080 Ti.
