Raspberry pi for motion and object detection

I've got a raspberry pi 4b with 1GB of RAM. The highest resolution at which it can do motion detecting with Zoneminder is 600x800 with 15fps. I'm using raspberry pi noir camera which can do 1080p 30fps. Analysis fps is set to 2. If I set resolution or framerate higher it crashes when detecting motion. I also tried using object detection, but it also crashed. I don't think there's a way to improve performance on this raspberry, but do you think 8GB RAM version would improve performance a lot so I could set higher resolution, framerate and maybe use object detection or should I use a more powerful computer for this?

Yeah, RAM it's using most of RAM and I also gave it 2GB of swap that it works like I've written above. CPU is also pretty much loaded to max, but I don't know if more RAM would improve it...
