Can I fix memory overflow in Banishers with 8GB RAM?

Trying to run this game on 8GB of RAM is a total joke; it feels like my PC is breathing through a straw. Just loading a scene pushes usage to 98%, and the game turns into a slideshow. I tried closing every background app, but that only saved about 200MB—basically useless. I went into Advanced System Settings and manually locked the virtual memory to a fixed range of 16384-24576MB on my fastest NVMe drive. Resource Monitor showed the commit charge drop from 15GB to around 11-13GB, and the stutters finally calmed down. I did hit some boot delays after the change until I stripped my startup apps. RAM temps are sitting at 40-46℃. It's not a perfect fix, but I managed to export the performance curves and the game actually runs now.
