Completely agree. This issue is HUGE.
I have no idea why MS havent properly addressed this and provides information to admins to curb the resources that this service devestates a VM to the extent with.

SuperNotDuperI know you guys are trying to get if working properly, but I have been working on getting ATP off-boarded for month, including MS support cases etc. for the same reason and because we use Mcafee ENS. It simply uses a lot of resources all the time. I managed to get it off-boarded but now it has installed the extension again even that its not enabled in Azure. It's like a virus, hard to get rid of! And I don't think you can tamper with the priority as it has protection against that.
