Who is eating my memory in linux

I have a OEL5.8 64bit having 16GB memory.
In free -m command i can see almost 15GB used, but no software are installed.

[root@Server-2 tmp]# ps axu | awk '{print $2, $3, $4, $11}' | head -1 && ps axu | awk '{print $2, $3, $4, $11}' | sort -k2 -nr |head -5

[root@Hawai-2 tmp]# /etc/init.d/iscsid status
iscsid (pid  2617) is running...
[root@Hawai-2 tmp]# /etc/init.d/iscsid stop
Stopping iSCSI daemon:

After this i have rebooted the machine. Checked the free -m i can see a lot of free memory in the box.

Yum not working in Oracle Linux

We have a new Oracle Linux 5.8 box. Yum is not working in that box.

[root@oraclelinux129 ~]# yum install compat-db
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
This system is not registered with ULN.
ULN support will be disabled.
Setting up Install Process
No package compat-db available.
Nothing to do

Fix :

cd /etc/yum.repos.d

wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el5.repo

I need to edit the repo file to set enabled=1 for the correct 
channel [ol5_u7_base] and then I can install the oracle-validated RPM 
using yum

yum install oracle-validated -y
