Memory allocation is complex topic. The memory may have been released by RPD but the kernel still keeps it allocated for RPD - really releasing it only if another process needs it. One way to check would be to create a dummy shell script to consume a large part of memory and then kill it. It would then be interesting to see if your 'show chassing routing-engine' shows the same output.
