I’m using PT9 in Wasta Linux. When I close Paratext, the “process” (called Main) continues running. It regularly has about 3 GB of RAM allocated, and uses 25% of the CPU (one core at 100%). My temps shoot up, the fan goes to high speed, and things get sluggish until I “kill” the process. I don’t think this is normal… I’m wondering if there’s a solution for this?

If, while paratext is in that state, you open a terminal and run:

sudo paratext9-forceshutdown.sh | tee log.txt

then hopefully log.txt will show what paratext is doing.
