Looks normal to me. Dependant on what your looking at, number of extensions, number of open tabs, any of those tabs have a java application running? Java alone will grab 20Meg of RAM just loading, not counting the application.
If your CPU cycles are staying low, then there should be no impact on your system with the amount of memory used. Its there for a reason, to speed up applications. Why do you think systems are coming out all the time with more and more memory? Its not to just sit there and collect 'dust-bits', its to make programs faster.
