Resident Evil 2 Remake - Reduce CPU Demand?

[BattleToads]

I've been loving the new RE2 remake and it runs great on my system for the most part. The only issue I have is when there are several zombies walking around at the same time or all spawn at the same time, my CPU hits 100% utilization and causes some stuttering. 

 

Xeon E3 1220 @ 3.1 Ghz

Radeon RX580 8GB

16 GB DDR3

 

Are there any settings that I can change that might free up a bit of the load on my CPU? I've been playing on the "Graphics Priority" preset @ 2560x1080 with Vsync enabled. It only ever drops below 60 fps in the event of multiple zombies being loaded or walking around. Also, the game is only detecting 3.94 GB of VRAM from my GPU, even though I have the 8GB version. It seems to have no issue using more VRAM than that, though. 

 

Thanks in advance.

The game uses Denuvo as the DRM, which is known to cause performance issues.
