Which graphical emacs exactly?  There are several options.

Maybe "except displaying images" makes the difference?
Have you tried the same workload both not displaying images?
Maybe if you open images in gui emacs and do not close
the buffers, they do not free the memory?
Or some other issue?

(I stopped using eshell because it eats my RAM but that is not graphics
related.)

Under Xwayland?

I do not use wayland, but iirc pgtk backend should work there.
