Will Blender devs ever make it so you don't have to restart to get quicker GPU renders?

I was curious whether there was a useful answer in this thread, but unfortunately OP didn’t follow up (yet).

A quick look at the previous posts suggests that this is likely a RAM usage issue:

Is there a way to stop Blender crashing your PC with excessive RAM usage?

Sometimes when I make a heavy scene, while the graphics card can handle it, and I can get fine GPU viewport rendering, hitting F12 will see all my RAM getting used up and I have to shut down my PC. Can’t tell you how much time this loses me on jobs. Any possible way to get Blender to just not do that besides the obvious of spending ages making all my textures low res until it stops happening. I’d rather Blender just tell me my scene is too large.

Not unlikely the purpose of posting was to let some steam off.
