I may confirm having similar issue. It was happening regularly under EXWM. Memory get occupied more and more and more until it does not go any more, swapping becomes tedious and computer becomes non-responsive. Then I had to kill it. By using symon-mode I could see swapping of 8 GB and more. My memory is 4 GB plus 8 GB swap currently. This similar condition takes place only after keeping Emacs long in memory like maybe 5-8 hours. After putting laptop to sleep it happens more often. When I changed to IceWM this happened only once.
