This is partly normal and partly not normal. What have you set as memory allocation in PS preferences? Don't set it too high!

First of all, Photoshop is supposed to use all available RAM - up to the limit you have set in Preferences. That's why you should never set allocation too high. Other applications and processes need memory too, and that includes ACR. ACR runs outside Photoshop's address space, and needs its own memory. With 16 GB installed, I would recommend 70%.

If Photoshop uses more than the allocation in Preferences, something is wrong on your system. Then you have a memory leak somewhere. A common cause is third-party plugins.

The VRAM usage looks wrong right from the start. That's not supposed to happen. That could be the GPU driver.
