Yes, I don't see a problem at all.  As the file system is processed, 
files copied back and forth, etc, it's all cached in RAM. If the same 
data is needed again, it can just be spit out of RAM, _much_ faster 
than disk access.  If something else big is processed, though, that 
cached content will be 'purged' and the new stuff will be cached in 
its place.

If you left your server completely alone and didn't access anything 
else for a while, the cached RAM will eventually get freed as the 
'time to live' on the cache expires.  But that would take probably at 
least a day of no access at all...

I don't think this is the cause of your out-of-memory error problems.
