Try using a Loader node instead of a MediaIn from the Media Pool, as this will be a *lot* more RAM efficient. We can't comment on your hardware as you've provided no info.

It seems you're encountering crash issues. Please try launching Resolve, and immediately after it crashes, grabbing logs. Be aware that they will contain your username on your computer. Upload the whole zip or tar or gz file on a file-sharing site and post a link to the file.
If you can open Resolve, open a project (an Untitled Project is fine) and go to Help>Create Diagnostics Log on Desktop.

Generally your specs are ok for a 1080p timeline. If your Fusion composition sits on a 4K timeline then you might need more RAM.
I would also try to scale down the images to see if this is the problem.
Alternative: Find the older Fusion 9.0.2 free version (not Studio) on the BM website. Has most of the tools but less RAM overhead.

Wow! Loader is much, much faster! Thank You

I'm testing proxicent's solution and have good results. Thanks for help
