X seems to be taking 150Mb Mine takes

I guess that there's still some memory leak in X or something? At
any rate, if I've done my sums right, the tasks that you have running
don't take up 80% of your memory. Have a look at /proc/meminfo (or use
the free command) to check how much memory is disk cache.
