That was because of a philosophy change in Vista. In previous versions they would page off whatever wasn't in use to try and keep memory as free as possible. Now they try to load as much into memory as they can at all times. If you have the memory, why not use it?
It is way faster to run from memory than trying to re-load stuff off of the page-file on the hard-drive.
