Could you build this?
No Creating a signed 110 KB Windows binary that modifies system memory working sets and clears standby caches requires low-level Win32/NTAPI programming without high-level runtime dependencies.
What it would actually take: This utility requires native C or assembly programming that invokes undocumented or low-level Windows NT system APIs such as `NtSetSystemInformation` and `EmptyWorkingSet`. Achieving a binary size of ~110 KB requires omitting the standard C runtime (CRT), managing custom entry points, acquiring SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege/SeProfileSingleProcessPrivilege tokens, and handling Windows driver/kernel memory management constraints.
