There appears to be a serious bug in Component Package v1.0.1217 causing high memory usage on some systems that could be related to scheduled scans and the change to Daylight Savings Time - see Drayden's 14-Mar-2021 thread Malwarebytes is Using ALL My RAM (16GB+) for more information. Based on the bug description I assume it only affects Malwarebytes Premium users. From Malwarebytes employee ChuckOp's post <here> today in that thread:
"Malwarebytes Service restart should be sufficient. Bug is made worse due to DEBUG logging being enabled, which causes the excessive logging and memory consumption. It's a bug that got out and we will fix it and ensure it does not happen again."
I posted today about problems I was having installing CP v1.0.1217 at Problem Installing Component Package v1.0.1217 (rel. 11-Mar-2021) and was directed to Drayden's thread, so Malwarebytes might be in the process of pulling this update from their servers.
