Do you actually see an increase in the amount of memory that is allocated to your processes? If you only see a decrease in "free" memory along with an increase in "cache" or "buffer" memory, this is nothing to worry about. Operating systems usually try to use as much otherwise unused memory as possible for the file system cache. This memory will automatically be freed up by the OS if it is required for other purposes.
