That is the typical and designed behavior of SQL Server. It will only
release memory if the OS specifically asks for it.

Hi

Ideally SQL Server is the main application running on the box therefore
taking up all available memory is not a problem. You can set the max server
memory to be used via EM search for "Server Memory Options" in Books online.
