not enough memory

Hi!

A short time ago, I watched my free memory. I recognized the following: The
longer the system is up, the fewer free memory is left. The used memory grows
and grows, but if I close some applications, the memory isn't freed, is it? So I
have 78 MB of my 80 MB used. Is this a bug or a performance-feature? If it is
the last, how can I switch it off?

Thanks in advance.
