Maybe it's a problem if you're running Windows. That's probably why you assume the worst.
That's with a clean run. After you've used things a while, you are using more then 900MB of ram. Don't forget the cache and other things that use ram. The more you do, the more ram you can use. You load in more DLLs, fonts, eBooks, ADE to check things out, Notepad++, etc. It's not just a simple 900MB and that's it. It doesn't work like that in reality.
