Is it the virtual size or the working set of the memory footprint?
One thing to remember: even if the cache releases memory (which it does
a lot during a commit), Windows won't show that memory as freed up but
still belonging to the process that allocated it. Only when other apps
require memory is that memory assigned to those processes - as long as
there's enough memory available, most process viewers will still show
the memory for the original process.
