My memory latency is skyrocketing during fights in Metro Exodus; should I tweak process priority?

I started this as a total shot in the dark, trying the 'background process optimization' in the game booster software. It only reclaimed about 2.1-2.8GB of cache, and the frame generation curve was still a jagged mess—honestly, it was beyond frustrating. I then fired up HWiNFO and noticed memory temps swinging between 57-63℃, which was clearly triggering timing delays. The real fix came when I went into Task Manager to manually bump the process priority and tweaked the Windows Power Plan to 'Ultimate Performance'. Only then did the resource allocation curve actually flatten out in the benchmarks. The workflow was: Game Booster -> Process Priority -> 2.1-2.8GB recovery -> Smooth Curve. To be real, tuning software scheduling is a tedious grind that requires a lot of trial and error; you can't just flip one switch and expect a stable frame pool. I could hear the chassis fans ramping up with the load, and my input lag was hovering around 11-17ms. After a final validation via OCCT, the load balancing strategy finally stuck, and the frame delivery is now buttery smooth.
