Where has all of my ram gone?

I am the law!
I have 1.2gb of ram and since installing jaguar, I've started getting disk swaps.

I'm only running the finder, mail, itunes, ie, terminal and system manager. Memory Usage Getter used to tell me which applications were hogging ram, but that doesnt seem to work in 10.2 [simx?] anybody know of any way to tell whats hogging everything up?
 
I rebooted last night and now everything seems to be normal. The usage statistics that I posted before stayed pretty much like that right after I booted Jag for the first time until I restarted it. Strange...
