How much are you using now? What makes you think more is being used? Which DE do you use? Did you reboot following the upgrade. If not, a lot of RAM could still be allocated to leftover cache of the upgrade process. The last 32bit upgrade here was a larger than average one, over 1,100 packages.

I'm sorry I can't boot TW now.
I use conky to measure free RAM and I watch this value after booting system, after running apps - Brave browser for example which seemed to be the reason for higher RAM usage.
IceWM.
Yes I did reboot.
It's 64 bit. No apparent change in 32 bit TW (on another machine); I don't use Brave browser there.
