I'm using cryfs. I've just tested this, and it's the cryfs process taking up
all the memory. It seems like this is intentional:
https://github.com/cryfs/cryfs/issues/335#issuecomment-652338744
Cryfs is currently the default (it's the first on the list) when creating a new
vault. It would be good to inform the user of this limitation, as it seems like
it is intentionally made to use 4 GB of RAM: this makes it impossible to use it
on devices with 4 GB of RAM or less.
>From my limited testing, gocryptfs appears to use a lot less memory while
providing similar (if not even better) performance.
