Self-Review Checklist: - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [x] The content is consistent with the [UI/UX checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) (Arguably no, but it's an okay compromise methinks) - [ ] Tests cover the new/changed behavior (I'm unsure how one would properly test this, sorry!) - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable Closes #56466 To be completely honest I don't know if this is a good fix or not, it does fix the problem I was running into where opening the large mermaid diagram would blow up VRAM. It doesn't look amazing visually but I would consider this behavior better, if it's not a good fix then that's okay:) I chose 8192 because 8192 only brings VRAM usage up ~100MB in my testing while 16384 brought my VRAM usage up to about 1GB from 150-200MB, for lower end systems this seems unacceptable. Before: I can't take a screenshot of the before at this point because it eats my system VRAM & Memory too fast. As a text description; It would show a large empty rectangle where the mermaid diagram should be and blow up Zed's VRAM usage from ~300MB to ~22GB (all of the available VRAM in my system) After: <img width="1698" height="763" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/62eb7c95-cca8-43f9-8257-c7e529f26e8d" /> <img width="1000" height="31" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4315c029-3cdd-44f6-ac78-971d125ab700" /> (Up from ~150MB), the 257MiB figure is the GPU Memory.
