  High consumption of ram in Ubuntu 12.04 - amd64, ext4, dpkg

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I just installed ubuntu 12.04 and I notice a huge memory consumption.
  I do not use swap. I use ext4 and when I run an installation package is the drama :
  free -m
               total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
  Mem:           725        682         42          0         14         83

  Under debian Squeeze I have already encountered problems with kswapd0. I think it is this:
