In this case the memory is blowing up, because you get an enormous number
of interactions (see the distance between facets).

Actually, the memory leakage will be also with spheres, not only facets, but
with spheres it will be not so quickly. I should say, this is a
"normal" behavior.

When you erase a body, you do not destroy it as an object. You just "erase" it
from the simulation, remove it from there. So the object is continuing to exist.

That is why you get an increasing of memory consumption, because you
create more and more body-objects.
