install visual studio for mac quit unexpectedly

Why does Visual Studios consume so much memory? I have a feeling that because it is hogging all the resources, it is causing my MacBook Pro to freeze / be unresponsive. When my Macbook Pro freezes, I can open Activity Monitor to check out the memory usage for Visual Studios for Mac and at that point, the RAM used by Visual Studios is approximately 9-10GB, sometimes even higher. I also have an instance of the iPhone simulator opened as well. I normally open up an instance of Chrome to watch my Udemy video and have an instance of Visual Studios opened to code as I watch along. By downloading and using Visual Studio Code, you agree to the license terms and privacy statement. I see that the Macbook Pro model that I'm using only contains 16GB of RAM. The fast, free and open-source code editor that adapts to your needs.

The only solution to get my MacBook Pro to respond to me again is to hold down the power button till it shuts down and then restart my entire machine.

I'm trying to use Visual Studios for Mac (Preview 9) to code apps in Xamarin but occasionally, not only does Xamarin freezes but it freezes all my other programs that I'm using on my Macbook Pro retina 15 inch mid 2015 model.
