One more note: I was able to get rid of the excessive cache ram by issuing the following commands from terminal:
sudo su echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
That doesn't solve the problem, but at least keeps the system going a little longer...
