I've noticed that there are notifications now if a programme is taking too much ram and the kernel kills it. 69935

Were they there before or it's an update from the DE or notification manager.

It was crashing while trying to render with vulkan so I'm guessing it's vram. I do have 32GB ram so I don't think it was using that much

It's not video memory, it's system memory. Post the output of free -m
