DA on Debian is stable.

Where are you getting the 93% usage from? The statistics you pasted from top show low usage (1% to be exact), with a 15minute load average of 0.00.........
 
Jon, he may have confused you with too many facts :) .

First...

The top line in top/uptime is NOT a percentage; it's the number of processes waiting to run in the last minute, the last five minutes, and the last fifteen minutes.

Second, while 893472 / 905400 does equal 98.6% (at least by my math), it doesn't mean that Linux is actually using that much memory, but only that it's managing that much memory.

gejopaul, Nothing in the output of your top command looks bad.
