So I've got VS2019 fired up trying to write a simple program, fool around with it. Honestly, I know MS is trying to help, but there is this process memory window that is very active. I know my program isn't doing anything:snap[^]
Got to be a forehead slapping moment... what does it mean?

Is there a link to FAQ about sharing images in CP?

Good question, I downloaded VS2019 yesterday (my 1st day of quarantine), created a simple console app, when I run it in the debugger I get 9MB used on that particular graph, I, probably foolishly, attributed the large value to debug information.

That is displaying how much memory your process is using in pseudo-real time. It looked to be about 2MB which is typical for a simple process that has only allocated its stack. Put in a line of code to allocate a few hundred megabytes after a delay of a few hundred milliseconds and see what the graph does. It should be interesting.
-edit-
I find that graph to be amusing but of little value to me so I always close that window. I find memory leaks to be of far more interest to me.

Interesting? Maybe. But to be prevented at all cost! 
I am not wrong. I am just different!

Exactly! I am interested in eliminating them.

No.
Images are allowed only in two forums and the publications (Article, Tip...)
In the rest of the site you have to do it as you did. Upload it to somewhere and post the link here.

It can be quite useful during debugging sometimes. But if you don't like it then use the Options to switch it off.

okay after staring at it for a while, I've finally realized that the X axis is time. It completely confused me - constantly updating and I'm at a breakpoint. UI fail imho.
Solution: close the tab

That would fall under the category of cruel and unusual punishment.

I don't want to smell bacon if there isn't any. Same with coffee.

Nothing devisive: we think that one of the best posts in a while. Well, I wouldn't go that far. Why not? Be positive. I up-voted him. Shouldn't we, at least, have talked it over?
Hey - you two . . . knock it off . . . I'm trying to get some work done.

Reminds me of an old maybe-not-so-KSS joke...I forget exactly how it goes...the gist of it is this:
Two female coworkers, on a business trip, are sharing a motel room together. As they're getting ready to go to bed, one of them wants to come out of the proverbial closet, but doesn't quite know how to say it, so she starts with "look, I'll be frank"...the other interrupts her, saying "no, if you don't mind, I'd like to be Frank..."

That reminds of an amusing, older movie : "Short Circuit". There is a character in it who constantly butchers common expressions. One of his statements is, "I am standing beside myself," said in a faux-Indian accent which enhances the humor factor, I think.
