@cinimodev @stevelord We have exactly this discussion internally rn about one of our users.

The most likely issues seem to be:
- Anti-virus software
- Note that this will mostly show up as I/O load, but ppl tend to misdiagnose the problem and keep buying RAM. Wrong diagnosis of other perf sinks/bottlenecks also likely result in RAM expansion (and placebo effect).
- Quantitly and quality of browser tabs and extensions, e.g. Slack is known to consume insane resources
- Other Windows bloatware
