Describe the new feature you would like

I searched around in the issues for others with general performance issues, but currently, I suffer very regular frametime spikes/lag (in games most noticeably) with Vitals enabled. I've tried changing the rate it polls at, but it just changes when the spikes happen, and not if. I also tried disabling "extraneous" sensors, but even with just CPU usage/RAM usage, I encountered the same spikes. I'm unsure if it's possible, but is there a way to detect if a fullscreen application is running and pause Vitals? Not sure what info is necessary or helpful, but I have Vitals installed via Flatpak. I've attached my system details report too in case it's helpful. Thanks in advance!
