@desrod hey I think @brightonanc and I found a workaround for this. If you replace the exec line in ${HOME}/.local/share/applications/Zoom.desktop with

Exec=systemd-run --scope -p MemoryMax=4G -p MemoryHigh=2G -p MemorySwapMax=0 -p CPUQuota=25%% --user -- /usr/bin/zoom %U

Then it should work with SSO and limit RAM and CPU cores.
