I guess it's a driver issue. I once observed some "background" activity of the GPU once darktable was started. But that was with a much older version of the Nvidia driver. IIRC there was also some ongoing GPU activity with a darktable binary compiled in debugging mode. My assumption was that the driver continuouly polls the GPU for status checks and the like.
