I've got more questions too haha. Does pinching with 5fingers = exit app and deleting the icon from springboard = uninstall app?
I'm asking coz I've installed sbsettings and I can now monitor my memory and seems like it keeps dropping and never increase back after I pinch my apps with 5 fingers which I assume is already quitting the app. After I reboot the ram should be about 700+ but now only have around 100+ ... Any thoughts?
If pinching is not quitting an app then how do you view/close all background running apps?

The 5 finger pinching gesture is actually hiding the apps in the multi tasking position, it does not really quit the apps but just pause it. To completely quit the apps, you need to press and hold the app's icon till it wiggle in the multitasking panel and press the "x" button(like deleting apps on your springboard).

To add on to your point, some apps does automatically quit itself after some time of inactivity. I read somewhere before that explains the multitasking behaviour of iOS in details. Try search around.
