I removed a shared folder of 509GB in 350 items. It took 15 minutes for Syncthing to finish "Cleaning data for dropped folder", during which it peaked at 5.2GB private bytes, and spent most of the time above 4GB. This strikes me as being a bit excessive!

Yeah, it does sound a bit excessive. You mean the folder contained 350 files, a bit over a gig each (for reproduction)?

264 files, 86 folders. One folder had the bulk of the data with 481GB across 43 files, with file sizes ranging from ~1GB to ~48GB.

Could this be the block map.

Could be, yes. Those are some fairly long lists of blocks passed around.
