This means that you actual only use 503816 - 436096 ~ 65MB, which is quite
ok. Also you see that only 680 KB of swap are used, so you can say there is
no swapping at all (there are always a few bytes used by swap). As the
others already pointed out, Linux reduces the cache/buffers dynamicly when
you need more memory.
