lightweight usage https://i.imgur.com/SMAwCa0.png

That doesn't mean anything. If you have tons of free RAM, programs tend to use more than strictly necessary because it speeds things up. That doesn't mean they won't run perfectly fine with 8GiB as well.

What distro are you using? What apps are open?

What does free -h say?

[-] ugjka@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago 
[ugjka@ugjka Music.Videos]$ free -h
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:            29Gi        17Gi       1,8Gi       529Mi        11Gi        11Gi

I was wondering if your tool was displaying cache as usage, but I guess not. Not sure what you have running that's consuming that much.

I mentioned this in another comment, but I'm currently running a simulation of a whole proxmox cluster with nodes, storage servers, switches and even a windows client machine active. I'm running that all on gnome with Firefox and discord open and this is my usage

$ free -h
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:            46Gi        16Gi       9.1Gi       168Mi        22Gi        30Gi
Swap:          3.8Gi          0B       3.8Gi

Of course discord is inside Firefox, so that helps, but still...
