I am led by your comments regarding your high power and memory requirements to assume that you must be running very complex projects such as big business or economic modelling projects, or maybe complex scientific analysis or modelling, or maybe critical industrial control systems such as SCADA where stability is paramount.

In which case I am drawn to wonder why you are using a laptop for such work rather than a machine not limited by the constraints on installed memory and processor power that laptops suffer from. You also seem to think that as your needs are more demanding than others because yours exceed those that a tablet can provide; again I wonder if you are connected to the reality that many, many others find the same with respect to their usage demands and that such is rather mundane; not a sign that one has extraordinary power demands.

I am also drawn to wonder why you are not getting support from the professional technical support that always available in such important environments that you work in and who would describe the exact fault in accurate and precise technical terms, whether it be hardware, user, application or O/S based, and provide the remedy whether that be software or hardware maintenance, user training, or a workaround.

But I cannot escape the feeling that, in fact, your requirements are rather mundane compared to those that many others are exposed to, and that in reality you just don't want to know. You seem to be more attached emotionally to your notebook, your application and yourself than you are to Windows 8.x and seem to comfort yourself by shallow assumptions such as because your application works ok with Windows 7 but not with Windows 8.x that it must be Windows 8.x's fault.

And so, in the face of that and while there are well trodden paths to determining the actual cause of issues such as yours, the only advice you will get from me now is that you should take note of what others are also saying; fault can lie with the hardware, the applications, the user, or the operating system. Until you can describe the exact cause of the issue in accurate and precise technical terms you cannot claim to know in which of those your issue lies.

That is all from me.
Someone likes to make alot of assumptions I see without knowing any of the information. Did I even ask for your advice? Nope I just gave my opinion of Windows 8 and you went off on me at least others here asked productive questions than calling me a liar. Me think someone needs to lay off the caffeine or go do some reading and relax.
