Disable the "Show node preview" under "View" menu can help on that.

What is weird is that VRAM rise up as if it was caching when i play the timebar with a cop network even if their is no simulation involved. and then it stay high even if i clear the Cache using cache manager or enter copcache -c in the textport as specified in the copernicus tip. if i do it longer and it rise at top of VRAM , i see the standard RAM increase and it can lead to a crash...
The only way to clear the VRAM is to exit Houdini
i hope it's a bug and will be fixed because i never had those problem with Houdini 20.5
