Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I have tried to track down which program is using the memory, but the strange thing is that the sum of the memory used by the processes (sum of VmSize in /proc/IDs) doesn't equal the total memory used (taken from header of top output for instance).
Below is a ps -ef output for anyone interested. Thanks again for the help.
