It's possible to disable it for the system completely, not possible for 1 application.

To do this:
run PowerShell as an administrator, type Disable-MMAgent -mc, and press Enter. If you then run the Get-MMAgent command, you'll now see that the value of MemoryCompression is False, meaning it's you've successfully disabled it

This happened to me in FH5, and I notice it.
