Memory Consumption Improvements in Merge

The latest release brings significant improvements to the Project Merge memory consumption. Specifically, with multiple optimizations in place, we reduced the memory footprint by 25%-40%, compared to version 19.0 SP3. The effect may vary from model to model, depending on the model's size, as well as the number and type of changes themselves.
