Restricting Games with GPU cryptomining.

I recently stumbled upon a game, which i rather not mention and advertise for, that seems to me like it is doing some kind of GPU mining in the background. Normally when you minimize a game or put it in background, the GPU usage drops drastically because it is not generating any graphics right? This game uses 99% GPU all the time while running fg/bg. vSync is on and it is not an FPS issue, because well frankly the graphics of that game is prehistoric simple almost static. Well ok it is rendering in 3D, but almost no changes unlike in FPS games, see screenshot below. So my questions is: Is there a way to limit the GPU usage for games like that in Linux, and if so could that be added to Bazzite ? 🤔

Yes the game name is shown in titlebar of this SS, don't look at it 😛 This is a SS from my other system running Kubuntu...
