BTW "cached" memory is like free mem, if you don't have mem it gets from the cache.

I have seen a PC with 1GB that had 50MB free and 700MB cached and just one Xorg started.

My opinion. Someone has to verify it.

thanks for the info, it just seems strange that after flashing (i do a hard reset, wait 8 min, flash, wait 8 mins, hard reset, wait 8 mins) and afterward i have like 45% free (with micro) but after making a few changes, i get this, 10% free. is this normal, or am i having an issue?

this is normal. the network flow has a big influence for the reserved cache memory
