High memory usage when idle from: fossilize_replay (650 MB) steamwebhelper (382 MB)

If I close steamwebhelper steam tries to reopen it, even if I'm not using steam. When I quit the program it continues to eat that memory in the background. I only have 16 GB of RAM and its too expensive to upgrade at the moment. I was playing Counter Strike 2 earlier and I OOM'd mid game. Looks like fossilize_replay finally finished compiling some shader.

If I exit steam from appindicator menu, the steamwebhelper (a chrome browser?) ends.

I bought some more RAM. That should do it.
