iMac Application Soaking Up RAM Like A Sponge

The application Steam is taking up about 330 MB of RAM, when idle (not doing anything/sitting at home page). I don't think this is normal. With only Steam active, it takes up about 1/3 of my RAM out of 4 GB. Is this a serious problem?
It is also telling me that my Hard Drive has serious fragmentation. thx.
 
You don't really get fragmentation on OSX. RAM is suppose to be used. Free RAM = wasted RAM. As long as your computer doesn't slow down it's normal.
