Figure out what is using your memory. Use Activity Monitor.
There was a networking process, "discoveryd", that sucked memory. This was fixed in 10.10.4.
Terminal command "sudo purge" will clear memory cache.
I have 8 GB RAM on my MacBook Pro Retina and it seems fine for several apps including a Parallels/Win 10.
16 GB RAM on the elderly Mac Mini 2010 is also working fine for a big iPhoto library (about 200 GB) and an equally big iTunes library to be in use at the same time.
How much memory do you have installed?
