What is the “store” process?

Multi tool use
Looking through top, I saw a process called "store" taking up one of my CPUs. What is this process? Perhaps it is referring to the app store? If so, I wonder why it is working in the background.
Googling was unhelpful because "store" is too commonly used with other meanings. man, info, and help all did not have an entry for "store."

Try pressingc
to see the process in detail. Also, try the commandps -fp <pid>
, using the PID seen intop
.

Unfortunately, the process is not visible in top any more. I will see if I can figure out how to search for a process called "store."

"ps aux | grep store" yields "zach 22253 0.0 0.0 16504 1052 pts/4 S+ 09:14 0:00 grep --color=auto store" if that helps
