Public bug reported: This shows up in top as "webkitwebproces". If email editing window is closed, memory consumption returns to normal. If I save the email as a draft, then re-open it, memory usage is OK. Evolution also freezes for about two-three seconds every now and then when trying to type, paste, or erase text in the email. This is on Ubuntu 17.10.
