After some inactive hours, I logged in and got out of memory because of the Passwords App, which should not take too much memory, no hard processing is needed unless something else is running behind this and everyone doesn't know.
I have an i9 CPU, 64GB of RAM, MacOs Sequoia 15.1
MacBook Pro 16″
It doesn't look like a problem with Passwords. It looks like a problem with Google. Google has various integrations with Calendar and Contacts and those seem to work very poorly. You can find many reports of this specific problem here in the forums. For whatever reason, in Sequoia, this is now showing up as heavy VM use in Passwords. EtreCheck is showing that it's still the same old Calendar/Contacts bug.
You have some labor intensive app running from what I see in that screenshot. I would consider shutting what you are not using at the time. You could also shut down Passwords since it isn't n needed continuously.
Parallels Desktop
Word
Teams
Remote Desktop
Chrome
Those are only those that are running in the Screen Shot
There are hundreds of Processing running on the computer
Some are System Processes and Others come from Third Party Applications installed and used on the computer
