Are you sure a specific process hasn't hung?
Well, I am not sure that a process was closed that should have been.
For example when you open canola and then close it, canola will also open atabake, and python 2.5

a little after you close it, atabake should close as well. Python 2.5 remains open, adding to the use of memory. (I usually terminate this process by hand.)

I am guessing that this happens with other programs as well, I just am not able to recognize which processes they are from.

So you're saying that when your using a load applet (that shows memory usage) after having kept the tablet on for a day using various applications, if you close all applications down, the memory level goes back to the minimum where it was after the reboot?

For me my load applet memory shows 1 bar when I first boot, and after opening and closing some programs it shows 2-3 bars...
