Re GPU usage: noticed this myself a few months back and decided to poke around. Recommend turning off the minimap if you have it enabled. There seems to be some over-rendering that is exacerbated by it. It's actively being investigated and improved upon (0.192 was a great step in the right direction) but, even still, I've found it (currently) has a big positive impact once disabled.

It hasn't been a huge deal: I'm still getting a decent number of hours doing work on battery on my Framework 16, and usually I can plug into AC for a little bit if it gets too low. That said thanks for the information; I'll have to keep it in mind.
