Scan of Memory objects takes more than 30 minutes

[querymb]

Scanning Memory Objects taking a very long time (for Windows 7 64-bit 4MB RAM).  I have  Malwarebytes Premium 3.3.1, and it is up-to-date, and now the time to scan Memory objects is longer than 30 minutes, and it seems to scan something like 40,000 or so memory objects, if I remember right.  The scan does proceed - eventually - and it does finish.  It finds zero threats detected, and the length of scan total is 1 hour 8 minutes.   It it right for the Memory scan to take so long, or does it mean something is not right?  Computer seems to be running okay. (Note I run Malwarebytes with other things running, especially my browser windows open and some other apps, like for email.  This issue is not new to the latest update I did this day; I have been noticing it since I had upgraded.
