  "textContent": "Appreciate the rigorous breakdown, @John6666. You’ve essentially outlined our internal engineering and QA pipeline.\n\nRegarding the safety concerns around `SuspendThread` (CUDA deadlocks, thread state issues) and the need for “surgical” proof: this is exactly why **VRAM Shield** evolved from a basic script into a PID-controller-based system (Smart Throttling). We actively use ETW tracing and a LibreHardwareMonitor sidecar to micro-adjust the load safely, avoiding the exact crash conditions and application hangs you mentioned.\n\nOur telemetry confirms that on locked mobile VBIOS, this micro-burst approach is often the _only_ practical way to prevent `SwThermalSlowdown` on the memory junction without globally crippling the GPU power limit (since `nvidia-smi` is often restricted anyway).",
