Yes, I use split command but the problem is same with my code
because when write the data, Mac OS use more of free memory. (No

(250MB file)
When split file, the free memory 480MB > 80 MB (and no immediate
release)
When dupplicate file from finder : 320 > 240 MB (and release after
end of copy).
Wait, are you looking at the system memory stats in Activity Monitor?
Don't bother, having more than a few megabytes of free memory is
pointless: let the unified buffer cache use the rest. What's
important is the sum of free and inactive memory.
How work the copy from Finder to use small memory and release it
just after ?
My guess is that it does uncached transfers.
