Yes. The space you allocate to Logic (in OS9) is just the program 
space.  The EXS uses non-program RAM to do its thing.  SO if you load 
up many heavy EXS instruments, you'll see Logic's RAM usage go up. 
Other virtual instruments might do the same, or they might just use 
Logic's allocated space, dependant on design of the plug-in.  Most 
use Logic's own space, if I remember correctly.  So you always have 
to find a balance between giving Logic itself enough RAM and leaving 
enough for the EXS to function properly.  In OS X this shouldn't be 
an issue.
