That's great! Hope you keep using it and it helps your document management needs.
As far as I know that is the default behavior of Linux, it tends to use all remaining free memory for different caches including disk ( http://www.linuxatemyram.com). Python and Django do their own memory management and beyond keeping the number of DB connection and active file handles in check there is not much we can (technically can but shouldn't) do at the application level to manage memory. That is not to say that a memory usage audit of Mayan is not necessary (the memory footprint of Mayan was last documented several versions ago).
