Is this normal (am I doing it right?)?
What are you monitoring, and how ?

It is i normal that freeing memory does not change the resource
consumption of the process. The freed memory will be available for
reuse by malloc, but malloc does not immediately return the memory to
the OS.

No, filled more than 7GB, swap was at ~350 MB, and then I loaded a small table which would otherwise take less than 10 MB memory, but the memory usage increased.
