Why 500 GB memory allocation on OSX ?

Greetings! I'm checking programs running on my Mac to trace down some slowness. I see 1Password has a paltry 150 MB resident, but a whopping 530 GIGAbytes virtual/reserved. Any reason why? Technically I think it makes no real difference. It sure tips the charts, hundreds of times more any other process on my system. I'm not blaming 1Pass here for my speed issues. Just wondering whether this could be brought within reason, if anything, to avoid simply standing out and raising questions like this. :-)

    @StripedTiger - thanks for letting us know. If you're able and willing to check something like this, then I'm pretty sure you know that this is allocated memory, not what's actually in use. This thread has some further discussion of the issue.
