Do a "sudo apt-get install linux-image-server". This will install a PAE enabled kernel that can recognize your extra RAM. I run this successfully with a server containing 16GB of RAM. As to your RAM usage, that sounds normal. Our users typically consume between 200-350MB RAM while using OpenOffice and Firefox.
