    I understand that, I just don’t see much reason for it to vary wildly unless it’s processing shaders or something which wouldn’t really be a fair reading of its resource usage.

      Honestly think Steam should run a daemon, not a client. Their store is just fine in a browser, not everything needs to have integrated everything in it.

      Same for GOG, though, Galaxy is a hog but unlike Steam it is optional. Comet does everything Galaxy needs to do, for almost no resource usage, and there could be something similar for Steam put together by valve by the end of the week if they chose to do it.
