Subject: hash, clearing hash, and percent of hash question

512 megs ram.
hash set at 256.

some programs give percent of hash used during a game.

using the above values, here is an example.
the percent of hash used starts at 0%.
as the program thinks the percent of hash value increases.
so as the percent of hash gets to 90%, is this 90% of 256 megs?
if this is 90% of 256 megs, and this 256 megs of ram is full of
data analyzied by the program, then what happens to all this information
after a move.
these percent of hash readouts are going back to 0% after each move.
my understanding is that none of the modern programs clear hash after
any move, so what does this 0 value indicate. 0% of what?
