I wonder how far pausing the process(es) can take us already, yes it does free the RAM but Linux can simply move it into swap on it’s own. Maybe similiar thing works for GPU memory?

Yeah, part of the early recommendation for using the pause games plugin was to increase your swap size to 16GB or more, to make room for running multiple games like this. Most everyone just sticks to the default ZRAM now, and even if you increase the emergency swap I don’t think the system will use it until the ZRAM is maxed capacity.
