wusa.exe (Standalone Updater in Task Manager) consumes too much memory

Windows Update Standalone Installer (wusa.exe) can be a problematic thing to fix. For starters, you won't see a listing for it in Task Manager's Startup section. It may also not visually consume too much memory by itself but stopping this process appears to have a knock-on effect on overall memory consumption.

wusa.exe is a feature of Windows 10 as well as legacy Windows versions including Windows 7, Vista and Windows Server 2008.
