Hmmm, I'm wondering if this is because the OS is taking that long to swap over the memory (the Python data structures are fairly complex and I guess it's possible the memory usage is therefore structured in a fairly complex way). And I think there are still memory leaks, possibly/probably related to the Tk graphics, so that would mean this problem would get worse with use.
