I'm not sure if this is directly related but I notice a massive memory link with writing email with HTML content, such as pasted content from a webpage. This also applies to images that are inserted, as these create HTML containers around the images, thus causing a leak.
The leak is apparent when pressing backspace after HTML content has been inserted. Typing is fast and responsive, but backspace takes one to two seconds to complete. It's often faster to highlight and delete than to press backspace. This leak causes sending of messages to freeze the window, causing it to grey out. As a final note, I've found that including a signature and attempting to delete it will crash Evolution instantly, although this may be an unrelated bug.
