Thanks for the reply. May be I explain it wrong. But
anyway, below is my free -m without any prgrams
running


ml02{pm}% free -m
            total       used       free     shared  
buffers     cached
Mem:         15499      15467         32          0  
    44      13735
-/+ buffers/cache:       1688      13811
Swap:         2047          0       2047
ml02{pm}%

How am I going to get back my memory?
