It wouldn't show up on that meter if it was being cached. There is obviously something going wrong with one of your processes and its taking up all your RAM. If you check the process list it will tell you what is using it.

I figured it out:eek:, I had mounted an image to a virtual drive,and on my old system it didn't put the iso in to the ram, it put it on the Hard drive. sorry to waste your time.

Thank you.
