Why Does Azure Databricks Consume So Much Memory When Running in the Background?

I had two Azure Databricks pages open in my browser without performing any computations. When I returned from lunch, I noticed that they were occupying about 80% of the memory in the task manager. What happened? This issue never occurred in the past, but recently, the performance has become increasingly sluggish.Snipaste_2025-09-09_13-50-09.png
