How can I release the system memory?

Press the "refresh" button in the top-left corner of the Memory page. It releases approximately 35% of system memory (unless this amount of memory is already free).

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of the "memory release" feature - I implemented it only to silence all the user's requests. Have a look at the documentation for more details:
