Just the other day, an Intel graphics-related driver (dwm or something) was using 13GB of my laptop’s memory.

That could be a GPU memory leak in an application, no? When an application allocates GPU memory, that's taken from main system memory on integrated chops, and the Intel driver would be responsible for that.

It seems not, and it's not fixed. I suspect it's related to using a second monitor over thunderbolt
