Pop Shop taking 500 MB RAM background

[realKarthikNair]

How did you upgrade to 22.04? (Fresh install / Upgrade)

Upgraded from 21.10

Related Application and/or Package Version (run apt policy $PACKAGE NAME):

io.elementary.appcenter

Issue/Bug Description:

Pop Shop takes 0.5 GB RAM in background

Expected behavior:

It used to take only ~200 MB idle RAM in 21.10 and prev versions

Other Notes:

In my experience, it is just cached content:

If you use something like nonhang -m, you will noticed that almost all memory is freed when required.
