It's not exactly the same as the OP's experience, but I'm seeing some strange results even on my Intel laptop with integrated GPU. When showing my shared GPU memory usage, I can make it steadily increase by simply minimizing and restoring Sigil over and over again. I got it up over a gigabyte and while it eventually went down a little, it never fully recovered (not even close).

This is all with the empty, default Sigil epub.

When I check the "Disable GPU Acceleration in QtWebEngine (in Sigil preferences), this behavior stops completely. The shared GPU memory usage stays nearly constant no matter how much minimizing and restoring I do.

Regular RAM usage stays fairly constant regardless of all of this.
