Can you show us output from some memory measuring tool (1st few lines of
'top' would probably be good enough)? I'd guess you are seeing the Linux
buffer cache at work (you could test by unmounting the filesystem
postgres was using - typically /var - and seeing if that magically
returned your memory)
