Q: GPU restart question on a 2013 13 inch Macbook Pro w/Retina Display

Hi, I was just searching online and there was no freezing or anything,  but then I see a little alert saying something about the graphics needing to be restarted and if I should send an error report.  I searched the reports the diagnostic reports and saw this

 

11/30/14 7:23:56.061 PM DumpGPURestart[1116]: com.apple.message.domain: com.apple.crashreporter.writereport.gpuRestart

com.apple.message.signature: Kernel

com.apple.message.signature2: UNBUNDLED ||| kernel ((null))

com.apple.message.signature3: UNKNOWN

com.apple.message.result: noop

com.apple.message.summarize: YES

 

I was just curious as to what is this all about.  Is my GPU going bad?

 

The only thing graphic wise that I noticed that since upgrading to Yosemite,  when I restart the Macbook or power it on, when my Wacom Cintiq is connected to it, there's some flickering on the screen after I log in.  Its something I don't notice when I power up my Mac Mini with the Cintiq attached.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
