Hi, I have noticed latley that photoshop is taking too much ram for nothing, I was trying to edit just one photo 4000px x 4000px  and the ram usage is around 6000MB, and even after I close all files photoshop does not give the ram back it just hold it.

I think there is a problem with photoshop please help

@Abd98273 that is completely normal. Photoshop will not release RAM until you relaunch the application. If you are using AI or the Remove tool this can add to the usage. 6 GB is nothing for Photoshop.

I've moved this from the Using the Community forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the Photoshop forum so that proper help can be offered.
