@Mitch,

thanks for explanation. So eventually free memory will stop going down?

Otherwise FS is running perfect, I just do not what that anything will 
go wrong while I am not in the office.

p.s.: FS is now up for 14 days. Will memory leak be causing problems any 
sooner or it can influence on memory slowly?

Regards,
Miha
