I could NOT reproduce this problem for days and days, even trying to keep
longer Emacs sessions.

Though, it just happened with GNU Emacs 24.3.1.

    GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.2.9200) of 2013-04-08 on LEG570

Unfortunately, for some reason, my "watch-emacs" script was stopped. Though, I
made a video where you can dynamically see the memory growing very quickly,
then dropping back a lot. I'll send it privately, as it contains information
in buffers which I don't want to make public.

Best regards,
  Seb
