Extreme memory usage, slow startup and search

I have a very annoying problem.
Fb2k is using about 970mb(!!!) memory right now but 0 CPU.
When I do a search it takes a long time (about 10 sec) and I can't do anything while it's searching.
It's not indexing and besides these problems everything is working as normal.
I use a very simple layout but I do have about 30000 songs.

I never had these problems before and I can't recall that I did anything special when it started.
I am using the latest version.

Anyone got any suggestions on what to do?

One thing that is a bit odd is that foo_audioscrobbler.dll is a very old version.

This is the one you should use: http://www.mp3tag.de/en/fb2k.html
Windows 10 Pro x64 // foobar2000 1.3.10

Do you by any chance have any large (auto)playlists? They eat a lot of RAM IIRC.

If you have some time (indexing takes some time), try installing a fresh portable copy of Foobar and compare.
