Close absolutely every single application that is open. Then open Lite Tweaks, Clear Memory. Then report total memory usage in Resource Usage.

Open Task Manager, sort by size, what are the top ram uses?

When you upgrade to 3.4, you may find your system starting to use more swap again. That's because it may have reset the 'vm.swappiness' value back to the default value of 60. If you got lots of RAM, suggest you change it back to a low value (like 10).

Do a 'cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness' from a terminal to check its value.

Thanks for the tip! But the issue still exists! Changed the swap value to 10 on my laptop and still have 900mb-1gb ram usage!  :-[

To humdinger70: thanks for tip. Installed LL 3.4 on an extra machine that has 8gb ram. As you said, swappiness was 60 & I changed it to 10. Thanks again.

Replaced 2.8 with a fresh install of 3.4. With a separate /home partition, most of my settings and all my data were kept as I wanted. I'd been playing with a 3.2 virtual machine for sometime, as well as a hard install of the 3.4 beta on some older hardware, so I had notes on all the changes I wanted to make. The whole process went smoothly and took less than two hours. Everything appears to be working well.

Thanks to all for the great system!

I also noticed that the ram usage on 3.4 is higher then on 3.2.

Just finished the upgrade from LL 3.2 to 3.4 and I would like to thank all the people who contributed for this awesome release!! The only problem found is that on 3.2 my ram on boot was around 300-400mb with no apps opened now its 900+mb and with opera open 1gb+ .. I hope this issue would be solved!

Question.  Presume upgrade route is established for 3.2 32 bit.  Fuji laptop running on 3.2 32 bit with updates says it is the latest version when trying to upgrade.

UPDATE

Server must have been busy : upgrade procedure ran smoothly on 5th try.

After installing 3.4 on one computer I just finished installing & setting it up on my netbook. I knew that the zRam would improve the netbook, but I'm getting really good results. Cannot believe the speed that web browsers open/close, & that's even with add-on's installed. Going to install this later on a friends netbook that has Windows 7 Starter on it. Definitely has the wow factor. Lots of good stuff under the hood in this version of LL.
