Solved Command to clearing the catches from DirectAdmin

[Pacific Spirit]

Hello,

I have upgraded my server quite a bit and now however in 3 days I see that the Catche is already 7GB as I have a limit of 16GB previously 4GB I would like to know how to clean up that RAM before I run into the problem again of the ram-deficiency run-up. Is there a CMD for this to do this via SSH or Custombuild, or is this issue self-explanatory? Because I know that with all kinds of programs I use I have to clean the Catch every so often just like the web browsers.

Where do I talk about, it's if you looking at "System Info"

if you talking about "top" or "free -m" output - this is OS level cache, it cleans automatically when RAM needed to any application.
OS just caches frequently opened files to make less requests to much slower hdd/ssd

Like @Zhenyapan explained you don't have to worry, cache is good

don't manual force clear the ram cache, otherwise your database will have problem. ... also other app too.
