I am having the same problem in my Windows 10 Pro machine (running Intel on Intel Nuc).
McClientAnalytics.exe uses too much memory and hang the system (it hanged my Chrome browser too). It uses up to 3,969MB of memory (RAM) and it happened quite a lot. Possibly it is a memory leak in the software. Please fix.

I am also having the same problem. Let me know if you need to gather logs from my system if you think it would be any help.
BTW, I am a software engineer. So, if you described how to get the log, I will send it to you guys.
Thank you very much for your input, it is immensely appreciated. I will convey this to our Senior Level Engineer,s and quite possibly you may be contacted to allow them to set up a day and time in order to do such. I am certain you will be asked to communicate initially through a 'Direct Message'.
Having said this, while I suggest you keep checking back on this thread. In addition I have followed you, and if you could kindly accept my request. I will keep you apprised of when the time may be that you are contacted at your convenience of course.
This will go a long way in getting to the bottom of this.
This customer is willing to have logs collected to help resolve this issue.
Thank you,
All the Best,
Cliff
Total, Win10, same, etc.
I closed and uninstalled Google Chrome and AnalyticsSDK is no longer causing me grief, except that I now have to Bing on MSEdge. So Google is possibly the villain.
Please be informed that a email will be waiting in their 'inbox' tomorrow morning, on your behalf.
Thank you for your input.

It could be McAfee + Google Chrome cause this problem because Google Chrome alone, look fine before I install McAfee.
