    Yeah because in the commit charge it is showing around 300MB of memory being used.

    I mean that the sum of all the memory usage in the "processes" list is about 50-80 mb

    Well according to my rough calculations the memory usage adds up to at least 128 mb, and thats not including the rest of the processes below the scroll that we can't see in your screenshot.

    I think you're misreading the list.

    Your screenshot shows 19 processes above the scroll out of a total of 40,which means there are another 21 below the scroll.

    Like i said before the first 19 add up to at least 128 mb,and your total "commit Charge" shows 300+.

    So as you can see you are using way more than the 50-80 that you are claiming.

    Basically you need to either free up some memory by uninstalling programs that you don't need or hardly ever use,or buy some more RAM. I would recommend you run at least 512mb,but 1Gb (2 x 512mb) would be better.
