termsvcs memory hog

The process termsvcs on my server running Server 2016 continues to be a memory hog. We were consistently in the high 90% on memory usage, so I got rid of alot of unnecessary programs and services that we did not use hoping that would fix the issue. However, we continue to be in the high 90%, as termsvcs continues to grow in memory usage as I delete other programs and services. Is there any settings for termsvcs to help with memory usage? Thank you.

  • Might also want to look at the number of users and what programs they might be running.

    Have the same issue here, there is little info out there about how termsvcs uses memory.
    Did anything find out if it was due to programs/drivers that can cause this to grow?
    It doesnt seen related to the users as we can see they applications they are running in the resource manager.
    Trying to understand what causes the RDS service to grow in its memory use and how do you troubleshoot its memory use in more detail?
