it's actually just virtual memory, neofetch uses that instead of real memory consumption and the scudo allocator tends to be heavy on reserving virtual memory (actually much more so in the default configuration used in e.g. android than in ours, as i've already put some effort into optimizing that), it's harmless in most configurations (the real memory usage is much lower) though i still plan to look into that more later
