Windows Latest recorded 791.7 MB of RAM usage from the Copilot app at idle, suggesting it can reach up to 1 GB of system RAM usage in total. I’ve left the Copilot app open in the background as I write this article, and it’s currently sitting at around 560 MB—making it the third most RAM-heavy application currently running on my PC.
I don’t think Copilot will be able to help me track down system resources… on Linux. I use Arch*, BTW.

Me: Copilot, what’s using up all my system resources?
Copilot: Me. The answer is me.Copilot now interfaces with you through an Edge-based web app installed on your Windows 11 PC, but the model lives elsewhere in the cloud.
So you’re having an offsite service analyze all the applications running on your device? Fucking insane levels of privacy violation right there

Speaking of privacy and another reason to never install that trash.
Crackhead behavior.
