Hi, when I running a sim on windows 10, I notice that a huge chunk of memory are “cached”(not “In use”), sometimes the “cached” memory will go over 80%, is that normal?

With memory usage that high, it means the simulation you are conducting it too complex for your computer to handle. Try reducing the quality of the simulation (less particles or volume resolution). Once Houdini exceeds physical memory, it's ability to solve the simulation drops greatly. You may have to wait days for it to complete.
