Quote - In version 3 and earlier the DAZ Studio process will continue to run for a bit even after the program has been exited. It is doing some clearing and memory management, but it won't hurt any data that you've saved if you kill the process.

...but for ten minutes? I watched the process for a couple minutes longer in Task Manager and there was absolutely no change in the memory usage, either up or down.  This said to me that something had stalled or crashed. Usually if a programme/process is running properly, this number continually fluctuates.

I finally clicked on End Process to clear it manually.
