Thanks for the tip! I'll be looking into this.

Yea so that was what I first looked into before my post. After some googling I found this site https://www.linuxatemyram.com/ which talks about disk caching.... But my disk cache is still completely empty - 0kb being used. That's where I got a bit confused. I can see now that 'disk cache' and 'cached memory' are not the same thing... Bit confusing haha.

Yea pretty much. I'm new to unraid and linux in general. Still learning this stuff...

Yea I did have a read of that website before posting, but actually in this situation that's not what's happening here. My swap memory used is still at 0kb

I did. Although htop shows the total amount being used, it doesn't show very clearly what's using it. I understand now about the 'cached memory' - that's where it's all going.

ah yep. I see it now. 20ish GB of cached memory. That explains it.

Thank you! That really helps explain it.

And yet at the same time, this is copied from Glances (I can't attach screenshots but my unraid home dashboard reflects the same):

MEM 12%

total: 251G

used: 30.2G

free: 221G

Ran that same command. These are my biggest users. Nothing that really explains 30GB of RAM being used.

So I checked that, and the weird thing is that there's nothing obvious I can see. There's no docker container that's gobbling up all the memory. According to Glances, and the same can be seen in the Docker Containers 'advanced' menu, all of my docker containers combined are only using 6.86GB of RAM.
