EVE Online internal memory-usage monitor after ~2h minimal gameplay

Ever since the 2022-02-06 update to EVE Online, the GPU memory gradually fills
up over time with texture data, eventually leading to a client slowdown,
freeze, and disconnect. This is particularly bad on high-memory-usage
activities (for example, in big fleets jumping gates), but even in
barely-active states the GPU memory usage gradually increases.

Attached is a screenshot of the client after running for a couple hours. I'm
not doing anything special: mostly in-station, occasionally undocking to go to
a different station in the same system, etc. As you can see, memory use,
particularly textures, increases over time.

This is likely a problem with the EVE client itself, but since it seems to only
affects Linux, CCP likely won't touch it. Any idea what's going wrong here? Is
there a workaround that wine could implement? What other data do you need from
me?
