I've not seen this problem discussed on tf.tv before. Many users on /r/tf2 and steamcommunity are reporting a serious memory leak in tf2 since the Tough Break update, to the point that their frames will crawl down to <30 fps during a session. One suggestion is to delete the sound.cache files and some users have fixed the issue like that.

Just search for all sound.cache files in your tf2 directory and delete them all

This didn't fix my problem, but then again my problem seems to be common with lots of people who use laptops.
I run a Intel HD3000/GT555m configuration and it seems to bug out the game during MM after a 5min period of play, console gets overflown with

ShaderAPIDX8::CreateD3DTexture: Invalid color format!

and I am not running in DX8, but oh well I hope this will be fixed soon.
