How to predict required memory for calling an actor from self-created actor (externally)?

Hi, I got a few questions regarding: https://apify.com/maxcopell/zillow-api-scraper
1. When I run this actor directly, I get no issues, but when I run the same with own actor calling this actor, I get the issues of exceeding memory (see picture with logs). Is there a difference and will upgrading to pro be sufficient?
2. I am paying about 0.2$ per request (when I scrape only 3 results) is there a way to lower this (like no pictures or html only with Cheerio?)
3. "The average cost of using the Zillow Scraper is about $0.25 for every 2,000 results scraped." This does not match what I get, which is around 0.2$ per call, returning 3 results per call max.
