GNOME Freezing, running out of memory

These hard crashes only happen when I am really pushing my laptop and running CUDA programs, and while they also happen KDE, KDE recovers without having to go to the TTY and resetting things.

8GB swap, 16GB of RAM.

I just want to make sure that it’s not something more complex with gnome and I’m not sure what to really make of my journalctl logs at the time.

I believe the headless Nvidia warnings can be ignored (my laptop outputs through the iGPU only, even for display out), but I’m not 100% sure that it isn’t causing the issue (about 65% sure?)

I really like GNOME, and while I could simply reset the gnome-shell via the TTY interface, I want to know exactly what’s going on and if there’s any other possibility for these hard freezes that I am not aware of.

  1. Please specify OS / gnome-shell version.

  2. If it crashes, can you get a backtrace of the the crash.

Gnome ver. 47, on Fedora Silverblue.

I cannot backtrace the issue, as I have switched to Fedora KDE for the time being to see if my workload is just too much for PC to handle at the moment.
