Upon loading EA CC, the application idles fine and consumes no extra memory. When a project is loaded and EA is idle, it will consume .0mb per ~5s without stopping. As soon as you play an animation(could be as simple as moving a box 1px) EA will rapidly start consuming memory and over the course of 10 minutes, it will use all of my 8gb of memory.
