I have a new laptop with only 4 GB of RAM. When I boot up the system, almost 2 GB are used for something.
Are there some quick tricks to increase available space? Maybe disable Superfetch as I have SSD, or decrease size of disk cache?

Memory being used is not necessarily a bad thing, given the OS releases it when other programs need it. I wouldn't worry about this unless you're actually having problems with programs not getting the memory they need. Until then, it will use that memory to speed up your experience in Windows.
Windows will let a lot of that 2GB go when it's needed elsewhere. You can easily test this by running some memory intensive programs.
Please consider what the others have to say first.... then read this.
In the "Run" tool, type msconfig. A System Configuration windows will pop up. Navigate to the "Startup" tab. A list of all startup items will appear. Theoretically you can disable all of these and the PC wil still function, however, it's best to keep items that you use enabled on Startup.
