I'm currently seeing this same behavior about every second or third day in Gutsy Kubuntu (Linux 2.6.22-14-386 #1 Tue Feb 12 07:12:19 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux) with Evolution 2.12.1.
It does seem to be limited to the composer. It also seems to be triggered by some key stroke combination. Ctrl-C, maybe. It does NOT seem to be specific to the text being edited. It slows down my laptop considerably, but some thing keep working, albeit slowly. To recover, I've set KSysGuard to start when I click the System Monitor taskbar applet. Whenever this happens, I fire up KSysGuard, filter on 'evo' and kill it dead. By the time I have KSysGuard running, the VmRss column reads over 1.5GB. The VmSize is usually well over 2GB. user% and system% are reasonable, though the disk seems maxed out. Is there anything I can do to assist with data collection? I'd prefer to keep using Evolution, as I do have to connect to an Exchange server.
