Openfiler will cache all throughput, so as the NAS is used it will fill available memory. This is normal, and to be expected. Physical memory will be freed as required by other processes. If you suspect a problem, login to the console and run the <code>top</code> command. As long as the amount of swap memory in use is low there is no problem. | Openfiler will cache all throughput, so as the NAS is used it will fill available memory. This is normal, and to be expected.
