Anyone else has noticed it please ? I'm sorry I can't return back to previous snapshot to provide exact numbers.

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.
