Well, "more frequently" is hard to say since it's happened twice, but
this time it certainly happened when launching a new program.
This time it was a markdown viewer.
I wouldn't expect that to be particularly VRAM-intensive, but hey,
since I run with two 6k monitors, I suspect *anything* with big
windows will chew up a few hundred megs of VRAM just for the frame
buffer side.
It's a B50 Pro, so it's a discrete card with 16GB on card.
I have no memory of what it might have been back a few months ago. But
I would expect it to be all the usual stuff - ten terminals, a web
browser with a dozen tabs, and whatever gnome and wayland do, and then
the occasional random other thing.
