Sudden use of memory report change to 100%
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I'm pasting the commands I've learned on SuperUser/Unix & Linux Stack help. Is this a common report? I do find that the memory is responsive and available, tho the conky report was reading about 9% after booting and loading only the terminal. Now at the same point, after a few minutes, conky says 98%.
I was using Firefox, adding extensions that I used on Chrome, when soon I noticed the change. Now the memory meter goes to 100% even before launching Firefox or Chrome. Also I'm curious about the huge reserves made by Chrome browser, and wether or not that is normal. Thank you.

Memory not used to run an app, is used for disk/file cache... and as such... it'll look like memory is close to 100% utilized.
