SAS Studio creates two sessions

SAS 9.4M5, Windows 2012 R2

I was looking at processes running on our main compute server and noticed that when a user logs in using SAS Studio, it actually creates two SAS sessions. Is this normal, and if so, why?

Yes, I have also seen this behavior. SAS explains here:

Thanks @Anand_V. Funnily enough, I'd looked in the documentation, but obviously missed that.
