Windows 10: Defender constantly using the most memory

Defender is always at the top of the memory list (in Task Manager) running on average 110-120mb. The only time it loses the no. 1 position is when I bring up a browser. It will never lose the no. 2 position though. I don't recall this happening even a month ago, where its constantly in the no.1 or no. 2 position. Anyone else showing this in their task manager?
