Why would importing pandas use up almost all my ram?

Question

I'm fairly new to python but I'm pretty sure I didn't get this behaviour before.

A couple of days back I've noticed that if I open a new python console and simply do:

import pandas as pd

Then python.exe ram usage grows steadily in about 5 seconds to reach about 96% utilisation (ie about 15.5G of my 16G total ram).

That's not normal, right?

I'm using anaconda3 python 3.5 on windows 10....I've updated my conda and pandas but to no avail...

Cheers

好的，所以从全新的环境开始，使用最新的python 3.5.4和最新的panda似乎可以将其削减....所以我想我现在将关闭这个美妙的线程，如果在重新安装所有其他需要的lib之后重新打开，最终遇到同样的问题。
