Why task manager has sidebar more than 1 task ??

I have some problem about windows sidebar.

Why task manager show sidebar running more than 1 task ??

I understand that it because gadgets develop from difference but it used
more resource than necessary.

this 1 task uses memory 25000K and another task uses 18000K

Gadgets are small application that it should not use more memory resource.

Thanx

One instance of sidebar.exe hosts the default (MS) gadgets, and the other
instance hosts third-party gadgets.
