does it uses swap space for accelerating everything too?? because now it has "eaten" all avilable memory and starts to "eat" swap space. Until this i've never seen anything in my swap partition, now there are 44M.

just wondering if there is a way to see how much each program uses memory


How much RAM do you have? if its less than about 256MB I would expect it to use a fair chunk of swap space..

To see what is using the memory you can use "top" and sort it by memory usage or look at the output from "ps -aux"

After reboot system monitor shows i have more that 50% memory free, but the amount of memory used is slowly rising and now it's 4h after reboot and i have 100% memory used :(

Probably this is caused by some apps i use (possible candidates are xmms and xchat), is there some way to check it?

I wonder if someone else have such issues.


Yes, everyone will have this issue.. If their system is working properly anyway.. :)

As has been said many times before, linux makes use of all availible memory for caching which makes things run faster..
