RAM economy tips



Hi everybody
after a few months I am using Debian at home I keep
wandering whether it uses too much RAM.
I have 128MB RAM, I run Debian 2.2r3,
run xfree86 with SVGA driver, xdm,
and Gnome under WindowMaker. Evan when I log in to
Gnome desktop with just 1 Xterm (nothing fancy is started up),
I see 70 - 80 MB used (whow seems worse than Win98 ?!?)
and the usage keeps rising till 90% as I open/close other applications,
and stay there.
Has anyone any tips about optimizing the RAM usage?

Thanks in advance and nice WE to everybody

Giovanni
