Sounds like cygwin's implementation of the basic memory management
primitives never returns memory to the system. Or at least not when used in
the way Emacs uses it. That can happen without it being considered a bug
(just a misfeature) because it doesn't increase the max memory usage.

Can you try to add
#define SYSTEM_MALLOC 1
in src/s/cygwin.h (maybe you'll need to undef REL_ALLOC and GNU_ALLOC for
this to work, I don't know)?
