With VRR active, vblank is forced true every main loop iteration. This causes overlay windows to receive frame callbacks at an uncapped rate, rendering continuously and skyrocketing power usage. Instead, throttle overlay callbacks to the output refresh rate by tracking the last overlay latch time and skipping callbacks until a full refresh cycle has completed.
