Running further trials indicate that the problem actually is related to
swapping. If I reduce the model size in the benchmark slightly so that
everything fits into the main memory, the problem disappears. Only when
the memory usage exceeds the 32GB that I have, Python 3.6 will acquire
way more memory (from the swap) than Python 3.5.
