Sudden Memory Spike and Host Lockup

Bit poster
Without warning, and without any interactions with the guest OS (simply idling in the background), memory usage spike dramatically.

All host OS interactions came to a standstill or crashed.

After about 5 minutes of attempts I managed to force quit parallels desktop.

I had capped the guest OS at 12 GB out of my systems 16 GB of ram.

This is what activity monitor looked like:

It drops immediately after force quitting Parallels.

Frankly this is unacceptable behavior.
