Memory-related questions...

I have situation that semms strange to me.

I'm using FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE (x64), here is the "top" command output:

CPU:  5.4% user,  0.0% nice,  2.1% system,  0.4% interrupt, 92.2% idle
Mem: 4565M Active, 2299M Inact, 657M Wired, 117M Cache, 824M Buf, 259M Free
Swap: 4096M Total, 1563M Used, 2533M Free, 38% Inuse

 PID USERNAME  THR PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE   C   TIME   WCPU COMMAND
24075 wow        10  44    0  6638M  3911M select  1 642:50 13.77% mangos-world

Can someone plz explain me what is "Inactive" memory and why isn't it cleared and freed in cases when players logout/grids unload?

I also used cactus system to view it graphically and as I can see the memory usage of process is only increasing, but in fact it includes less memory ("RES" field).

So I wonder how can I clear all inactive memory (that in fact is needed only for quicker access to recent data) and make it free...
