The load average shows nothing to worry about.

Linux tries to use all the memory it can get hold of, i.e. for
caching. It would be a waste not to use available memory for the
benefit of the OS. Your swap space is completely unused, so there is
no visible memory shortage. "No worries, mate." ;-)

Java is infamous for being a memory hog, so that's not necessarily a
Domino related issue.
