RAM allocation won't actually improve performance in TF2. Focus on other optimizations like lowering settings or upgrading your hardware.
Easy peasy! Just add the launch option '-heapsize' followed by half of your RAM in kilobytes. For example, if you have 8GB of RAM, you would use '-heapsize 4194304'.
