Hi all.
I have a Proxmox VE 7 deployed. We use a lot of LXC containers. I just wonder if the buffers and cache space are shared between the different containers at host kernel level or if each container has his own and cache space taken form the memory limit assigned to it.
This can have a strong impact in memory allocation to containers. Must I give them enough memory to have a good buffer/cache are when doing heavy use of filesystem? Or just enough memory for the kernel+programs and the container will use the shared area for it's access to filesystem?
I have been unable to find a clear answer to that question.
Thanks!
