RedHat 9 memory usage: is this normal?
 
Code:
            total      used      free    shared    buffers    cached
Mem:        384532    375740      8792          0      92536    145984
-/+ buffers/cache:    137220    247312
Swap:      401584      10072    391512
This is running KDE with IRC, a mail proggy and Mozilla running. With KDE not running, the free memory just crawls over 10000...

Is this normal? If not, any idea what might be taking up all this memory?

Never mind, I found the answer (I think).. Has to do with memory management in Linux... :)

Yeah that is normal, nothing to worry about at all.
