Local Security Authority Process extremely high memory and disk

Question

Local Security Authority Process extremely high memory and disk

Anonymous

A couple of weeks ago, LSAP started taking up around 10-20 gb of memory, and logging in also started taking an insane amount of time. However, after around 10 minutes of being logged in, LSAP goes down to around 1/2 gb. Is there any reason why LSAP should be taking up that much memory, and is there any way to reduce it?

I am running Windows 11 Pro 21H2
