Adobe Acrobat Synchronizer consumes enormous memory [Mac]
Adobe Acrobat Synchronizer consumes enormous memory: it's now at 35.5 GB.
I know I can kill it in Activity Monitor - but it still shouldn't happen.

I have three separate synchronizer processes running ~390 GB of VM plus another two Acrobat services process associated with Acrobat running with similar DRAM and VM footprint. And that's apart from Acrobat itself which has a similar footprint.
I'm not sure if these are erroneous reporting of VM footprint but its a huge about of data shuffling b/w DRAM, caches and SSD if these numbers are accurate and its being used. Seems to me nothing is released when files are closed, resulting in build up over the day. I've only had 10 small files open in Acrobate today so this number for VM is shocking to me. Other Applications from Apple doing much heavier workloads are nowhere near this VM footprint.

My memory usage was over 68 GB today before I killed it. Only about 5 GB of “real” memory usage as that was all that was freed, so the rest was compressed. But still, that seems excessive given that I had already (1) closed all open PDF documents a while ago, and (2) closed Acrobat about 40-60 second earlier.
I would just love to know what Synchronizer is doing. Indexing PDFs or some such?

Same problem here, currently around 28GB but I've seen it as high as 32GB.
