free memory going down overtime and then stabilizes at around 5M

I have ASUS wl -500 GPremium and I flashed with openwrt RC5.. as per instruction provided by macsat.
I want to thank him for all his effort as it helped me a lot in using openwrt.
Free memory in my system goes down and it stabilizes at around 5M.
This is stabilized system state.

I have put one 30G external disk.

Everything in the system starts on the system startup. On system startup,
I see that all the processes are running and free memory is around 15M.

If i compare, I don't find any memory hogger.. I don't know who is eating the memory.
I tried stopping lighttpd but not a big difference.
Could someone tell me what's going on here? Will this affect the system performance?
or is it quite normal?
Thanks in advance.
