I agree tons.. linux is far superior at using ram. After a month of running dozens of linux distros... I can safely say that linux only needs less than 2gbs for itself, it can use the rest of your ram for anything else.
I laugh at scenarios where I'm seeing 14gbs use under windows because I've had a few firefox tabs running a day or 2... under linux its 200mbs. Dam. Windows sucks.

While a good deal of work has been put into the Linux Subsystem regarding memory and swap management in the last year, there are still a few things the devs acknowledge are not completely handled yet. Now, I don't know whether or not mothur or it's dependencies are one of these fringe cases or not, but booting into native Linux would be a step I recommend.

you aren't a very good programer if you can't manage your in-memory data sets properly
no program no matter how demanding should ever use so much ram that it locks the system
if you need more resources then available you sacrifice performance

So finally decided to pay for a spot on the HPC high memory node. 20c40t with1.5TB ram and 2TB storage. Hopefully it will finish.
