Some will tell you that 1.5 Gb is all that OS X will use. Others will tell you that if apps are written to utilize more than 1.5 GB they will. I don't know, but suspect the latter is more correct. I really don't think that is your problem. I believe some app you are running has a memory leak and is gobbling up more memory than it actually needs. Start with the most suspect and run the apps one at a time to see which is the offender. Then advise the developer to get the app fixed. Avoid using it until they do.
