Andriod is suppose to use as much Ram as possible. It sees unused ram as wasted ram and tries to fill it so application will work faster. It manages ram different then your traditional OS. Maybe if you know how you could tweak it to act differently but IDK.

That's what I've always read but my phone gets really sluggish if the free ram gets low. Phenom's cm10 has some nice memory management options. That greenify app looks cool!

Adjusting OOM values(Requires jar file edit 4.+ forward.), using Greenify, being aware of applications that have a lot of background processes, be mindful of things like live wallpapers and autosync/data functions. Kill apps when exiting... There's tons of things.
