Hi,
There isnt any memory leak in your system, its the way that FreeBSD
handles your memory, it uses all the memory available in your system, and
tries to make all the things in there, instead of using a part in memory and
another part in swap. The section where you can see 395M Inact, its the
memoy cache in your system, in there the system kepps a lot of things that
could be used more frecuently, in order to respond faster if you want to
access some data that has benn accesed before.
BTW your system looks great to me.
Have Fun...
Ales
