The monitor reports a critical state and raises an alert when the amount of memory used by the resource pool is greater than the Threshold setting, expressed as a percentage of memory available for In-Memory tables for the given resource pool. This monitor is a dependency (rollup) monitor.

The named resource pool when mapped to memory-optimized database tracks memory allocated to all memory-optimized tables, including internal tables that are used for various structures within In-Memory OLTP engine.
SQL Server In-Memory OLTP uses more memory and in different ways than SQL Server does. It is possible that the amount of memory you installed and allocated for In-Memory OLTP becomes inadequate for your growing needs. If so, you could run out of memory.
Please refer to this article for more details: Bind a Database with Memory-Optimized Tables to a Resource Pool.
To resolve your Low Memory or Out Of Memory condition you need to either free up existing memory by reducing usage, or make more memory available to your in-memory tables. Possible corrective actions may include:
Check if there are long running transaction that is preventing garbage collection of memory. If yes, consider killing the long running transaction and/or look into the design of the application to see if you can reduce the duration of the transactions.
Free up existing memory.
Delete non-essential memory optimized table rows and wait for garbage collection.
Move one or more rows to a disk-based table.
Increase value of MAX_MEMORY_PERCENT on the resource pool.
Increase memory available to SQL Server Instance by configuring the Max Server Memory to a higher value.
Install additional memory.
