NT8 optimization fills 100% of physical memory then crashes

I am attempting to run an NT8 optimization on a fully-automated strategy called NanoScalper.I have an Intel i7, SSD, and 32 GB of RAM. Regardless of the number of iterations, the physical memory used climbs to around 100% at which point NT8 crashes. The CPU usage spikes and eventually returns to around 5%, but the physical memory % never decreases. I have considerably more processing power than what is recommended for NT8, so I am trying to figure out if I need to change a setting within the application. Thanks …

The end result was that one of the indicators was using a Draw Tag whenever there was an EMA cross. When you run Optimization, it can create thousands/millions of them and eventually suck up all the memory. So I removed the Draw Tags from that Indicator and the Optimization worked.
