Much memory usage in UITableView

Question

I have an UITableViewController and I customize its UITableViewCell s. Each UITableViewCell contains two UIImageViews and two UILabel s. Although when I get into the UITableView the memory usage raises to 100 MB and i do not know the reason. Here is the code for the cellForRowAtIndexPath method that handles the cell customization. Can anyone help me with this issue?

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView 
         cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{

    static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = @"Cell";

    UITableViewCell *cell = 
      [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];

    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault 
                                      reuseIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
    }   

    UILabel *mnhmeioLabel = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:102]; 
    mnhmeioLabel.frame = CGRectMake(mnhmeioLabel.frame.origin.x,  
                                    mnhmeioLabel.frame.origin.y, 
                                    191, 
                                    21);

    Group *tmpGroup = [mnhmeiaTotal objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    NSLog(@"%@ ",tmpGroup.title);    
    NSLog(@"%f %f", mnhmeioLabel.bounds.size.width, 
                    mnhmeioLabel.bounds.size.height);

    mnhmeioLabel.text = tmpGroup.title;
    mnhmeioLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Open Sans" size:10];    
    mnhmeioLabel.numberOfLines=0;
    mnhmeioLabel.lineBreakMode=NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;    
    [mnhmeioLabel sizeToFit];   

    if( tmpGroup.imagesOfArticle.count > 0 ){
        UIImageView *mnhmeioImageView = (UIImageView *)[cell viewWithTag:103];
        mnhmeioImageView.image = [tmpGroup.imagesOfArticle objectAtIndex:0];
    } else {
        UIImageView *mnhmeioImageView = (UIImageView *)[cell viewWithTag:103];
        mnhmeioImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@""];
    }    

    UIImageView *markerImageView=(UIImageView *)[cell viewWithTag:100];
    markerImageView.image=[self selectMarker:tmpGroup];

    UILabel *mnhmeioDescription = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:101];
    mnhmeioDescription.text=tmpGroup.constructedContent;

    mnhmeioDescription.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Open Sans" size:6];    
}

Probably, the images are big.

Or, perhaps you are not reusing the cells properly, if you are using iOS7 and Storyboards, please follow this tutorial (Prototype cells and Using subclass for a cell sections): http://www.raywenderlich.com/50308/storyboards-tutorial-in-ios-7-part-1

Thank you all for your help. I had to decrease the size of each image as much as i could. This fixed my problem.
