Is this normal? System and compressed memory process ALWAYS at 20% cpu
I recently did a clean install of win10 on my laptop.
Ever since then the process called "System memory and compressed memory" has been running at around 15-25% cpu load constantly. It never stops, even when letting the computer idle for hours. The laptop has a particularly annoying fan so this is problematic.
I was under the imrpession the point of this process is to compress in order to save RAM, but I have 12GB RAM and only 1.5 - 2GB are in use, it seems a bit premature for this process to start.
I have no other win10 systems to compare it to, so I was wondering if this is normal behaviour, and if not, anybody know of a solution?
So far I have tried to disable Superfetch, to no avail.
