Has somebody the same problem and knows what to do? I have it with LR classic 10 and now and worse with LR 11 (MS Windows 10).
My PC has a AMD 24 core cpu and 128GB ram. I import raw files - e.g. more than 150 - and let LR create 1:1 previews simultaneously. During the import and especially while creating the previews LR allocates around 60-80GB ram and the workload of all(!) 24 cores is up to 95%. Up to this point everything is absolutely ok and the import is runnig fast.
Now after the import but in the same LR session the amount of allocated memory is not reduced- imho not a normal behaviour - and the responsiveness of zoom in and out is very slow (LR11).
When I close LR normally, further two additional versions of the same problem show up. The Windows task manager shows still the running LR process with a cpu workload around 2-5% (this is a lot on this machine) and no(!) disk activity while the allocated memory is reduced in decrements of some hundred MB. This process can take up to some minutes. I am pretty sure, that there are no LR data are saved or written to disk. When there remains no allocated memory the LR process is closed and only then I can restart LR, that means several minutes after "closing" it. The worse variant of the problem- which shows up now in LR11 - is, that the process of memory deallocation gets stuck. I have to kill it before it is possible to restart LR.
