Not sure how the cleanup works, but these things will just get paged off
to swap if you aren't using them. I wouldn't worry about it unless swap
is at a premium.

The original poster must be kidding, and you are guessing, right?

As soon as a library isn't used by any application any more, the memory it occupies is freed. Of course, it might still be cached - but that doesn't hurt at all.

Ok, that's what *I* did know.
Now, who is right? :)
