Teams hogging memory, running slowly

This is such a joke. Teams is using 22.7 GB of ram and its not even open.

I am having the same issue.  Quite frustrating.  Outlook just freezes.  How can MS still be pushing apps out with such a fundamental floor as excessive resources usage.

MS takes away Skype, makes us use SFB and ensures we cannot share contacts and then give us Teams which is rubbish.  

Sick to death of MS dictating how, when and what we use.... sigh.  Wouldn't be so bad if it was stable, reasonable costs and simple to use.  and you keep changing stuff everytime you put our a fix or release and changing stuff that just does not need to change - moving icons around, hiding the ones you use all the time, etc, etc.

We're only a small business amoungst millions so just have to suck it up.

The "fix" suggested is complicated, not available to many non-admin users and is only temp until those temp get used again.  Pretty poor outcome. 

We will stop using it now and will look for a better, cheaper solution that works.

I have exactly the same issue.  I cannot recommend Teams while the latest version of the process hogs 65% of CPU power - even when not signed in - and kills our batteries.  It was working fine when we evaluated it last year but now it's unusable.

I have the exact same issue. My Outlook, for example, will become completely unusable (at random times) while Teams is running. I thought at first it was Outlook that was the culprit, but as soon as I kill Teams, Outlook and other applications return to normal response times. We have considered using Teams as our standard web conferencing solution, but will not be going down that path with these performance issues. Poor multi-monitor support (inability to split content between screens, which I've reported elsewhere) is another impediment.

Following (I think) a recent Office365 update, I am now seeing significant performance problems that I suspect are due to Teams

It consumes so much cpu that my pc becomes unusable (keystrokes and mouse movements lag by a second or two)

When I kill Teams, all is well again
