Wondering if this issue is Nvidia related. There are still good reasons why
they are being mocked as Novideo, and it generally doesn't seem like they care
too much about Linux desktop. That's exactly why I went with an AMD GPU this
time, leaving Nvidia struggles behind, improving my experience significantly.
Currently I'm at 16 days uptime with plasmashell GPU memory usage being less
than 1 GiB with what looks like a wasteland of abandoned windows I really need
to reap and/or catch up with. Not seeing kwin in nvtop, but with most memory
usage being associated with Firefox, Thunderbird, and other known GPU hogs, I
don't feel like KDE is bloated for me.
Did the monitor scale dance, total GPU memory consumption was almost 5.4 GiB,
100%->125%->100% dropped it down to almost 5.1 GiB, and then closing the
settings window got it below 5 GiB. So quite amusingly your memory leak
reproducer actually freed up memory for me.
I'm not sure if I ever ran out of GPU memory, but I definitely don't measure
the frequency of my issues on the scale of hours, instead when I get too
abusive with littering windows, plasmashell crashes maybe roughly weekly, but
with a light load it's way less common, so I'm quite happy with KDE lately.
