Hello

I am used to this principle with Linux but I don't understand why it just takes 
it when Bacula is working and it slows down the server so much that I can no 
longer access it in ssh.

Yup, agreed.  This is something that often looks alarming to people coming from 
the Windows world, but in thew Unix world it is *perfectly normal*.  Memory 
that you're not using is memory that isn't doing anything for you, and if you 
have free memory Unix will put it to use for something useful — caching files — 
until it needs it for something else.
