We have very nearly the same problem: 

We wrote a TCP print service in Interlisp, that takes requests from TCP
and sends them to our Xerox printers. Because of the nature of the
requests (first comes the files, and last the request it self) we have
to have a local spool directory.  The machine we use for these kind of
lisp service programs is an old 1108 with only 10MB disk. Therefore we
use CORE-files for spooling.

Everything works OK except that the vmem slowly gets full, so we have
to install a fresh sysout after a couple of days (can't use
VMEM.PURE.STATE either).

Our old guess was that it is the CORE-files that don't get garbage
collected correctly. But maybe it is TCP that is the problem.
