1: it depends how many, & what type of applications you're using
2: might be a memory leak; you can check by running the "top" application from busybox.
Just copy it over to /data/local/tmp, chmod 755 & run ./busybox top
But taking into consideration the fact that the memory doesn't go down to 0, but hovers around the 2Gb mark, I would cross this one out.
3: using the RAM is the proper strategy - it's much more efficient (application opening speed, power usage) to retrieve applications from RAM instead of initializing them each time from the storage. So I wouldn't count this as an issue, but rather as "working as designed".

not 2 gigs iv gt left around 234 MB ram left.
2 Gigs free would not affect performance so much.

I almost guarantee you installed a poorly written app that is causing memory leaks. Uninstall the least reputable apps one by one until your problem is fixed. Alternatively, in case you werent already aware, you can hit the recent apps button and click the boost button in the bottom right corner (looks like a rocket). This will clear your memory and close all non essential running apps

Problem is i'm using build in process manager but it isn't cleaning more than 2 megs out of 4 GIg that should be free
recent not working ether, only restart frees all ram
this is probably some system app drain

It is likely an app that you installed that is causing the memory leak as my phone doesn't have this issue and I left many of my Asus apps enabled because I like their functionality.

Perhaps you should Factory Reset the phone and start from scratch

I suggest you install like "3C toolbox" which have a page showing what process are using which amount of RAM. (any similar App will do but I just happen to like 3C toolbox). In this case you could see which App cause the problem.

As you could see from picture I attached, Amazon Kindle used most memory (179.82M) in my case (and this is normal). This is very handy tool to finding out ill-behavior app.
