Memory issue.
Clear Linux is consuming too much memory from past few updates. I have 8gb of ram, it's hanging most of the time with few tabs of google chrome.
After closing all applications it is consuming 2.8gb. Earlier it was around 1gb. I am using gnome desktop.
See the pic for details. After closing all apps.

It can be the gnome-software, check https://github.com/clearlinux/distribution/issues/2522#issuecomment-1012843160
I have a similar issue, even when launching nothing, just booting, memory starts at around 1.2Go, memory usage increase by itself, the tomorrow morning, memory usage has reached all my 8Gb. This is a fresh 43000 install though.
