Limit VRAM in Lutris (lemm.ee)

As I play Diablo 4, I see it take up ridiculous amount of VRAM, upwards of 20GB.

The game doesn't have very good control over VRAM management, and I think it just doesn't free up any loaded texture if the VRAM size is large.

I use Lutris to run Battle.net client and Diablo.

Is there any way I can limit VRAM available to it from Wine, DXVK, or Lutris?

For real. “Oh no, I’m using too much of my computer!”

Imagine driving a car “it’s using ALL the cylinders, can I turn off part of my engine?”
