If - in the past - I set Qt rendering explicitly to Vulkan, then it didn't show
up for me, too. But with the output module set to "auto", I do see it.
(kcmshell6 qtquicksettings)

I just tried that again: When set to Vulkan, I now see plasmashell in
nvidia-smi, and it uses more VRAM. I think that's expected because the NVIDIA
driver currently only controls OpenGL buffer re-use.

Yes.

Okay, thanks for pointing out. I just did that, because the report has been
closed before as "cannot reproduce".

Meanwhile, I'm on 575.64.05.

I've seen that with driver 580, KDE uses a lot less VRAM overall. But with that
version, I cannot currently run Vulkan games.
