What resides in Linux cache? That is the question. How it is related to the docker containers?
Here you will find bunch of the answers; problem solved.

# pcstat installation
yum install golang.x86_64
go get golang.org/x/sys/unix
go get github.com/tobert/pcstat/pcstat
# vmtouch installtion
git clone https://github.com/hoytech/vmtouch.git
cd vmtouch
make
make install
ln -s /usr/local/bin/vmtouch /sbin/
See how the cache looks like (buff/cache position):
