GL Driver Message (OpenGL, Performance, GL_CLOSE_PATH_NV, High): GPU stall due to ReadPixels Repetitive Error

[bilarallen]

Current behavior

When Running Cypress Test in Jenkins CI using the latest version 13.2.0 through Linux 5.4 Debian the following repetitive errors are displaying in the logs:

[887:0919/073119.239355:ERROR:gl_utils.cc(402)] [.WebGL-0x33ac0f51e900]GL Driver Message (OpenGL, Performance, GL_CLOSE_PATH_NV, High): GPU stall due to ReadPixels

[875:0919/073135.977947:ERROR:gl_utils.cc(402)] [.WebGL-0x1df813da8e00]GL Driver Message (OpenGL, Performance, GL_CLOSE_PATH_NV, High): GPU stall due to ReadPixels (this message will no longer repeat)

Desired behavior

No GPU stall due to ReadPixels related errors should be displayed in the CI logs

There are issues encountered similar to this but some of those were closed or didn't provide any supporting details like debug logs. It is also worth checking these previous issues:

This issue has not had any activity in 180 days. Cypress evolves quickly and the reported behavior should be tested on the latest version of Cypress to verify the behavior is still occurring. It will be closed in 14 days if no updates are provided.

I have observed the same problem on my GitLab CI when using:

Cypress: 13.6.6
Browser: Electron 118 (headless)
Node Version: v20.11.1 (/root/.nvm/versions/node/v20.11.1/bin/node)

Error:

Same in other projects were we use Cypress

I have the same issue using the following Docker image:
cypress/browsers:node-20.9.0-chrome-118.0.5993.88-1-ff-118.0.2-edge-118.0.2088.46-1

I'm testing a page which is loading a Web GL 2 canvas with 3D data.
The consequence is, due to this "GPU stall", my canvas is not fully rendered before I call my snapshot comparison method. I have to use a cy.wait to try and make sure everything is rendered because of that. Is there any other way to compensate this?

I believe I'm also hitting this issue on OL8:

I also get it when trying to render a 3d object in an iFrame with Cypress in Github Actions
